Maisie Goes to Reno

Comedy • NR • Directed by: Harry Beaumont • 90 minutes

In the eighth film in MGM's Maisie series, Ann Sothern is back as the ever-stranded and out of luck chorus girl Maisie Ravier. This time Maisie has a steady non-showbiz job as a defense plant riveter. She utilizes a two-week vacation to take a singing job in a Reno night spot. This small Nevada town being the Divorce Capital of America, Maisie finds herself involved in the crumbling marriage between a GI (Tom Drake) and his wealthy wife (Ava Gardner). Meanwhile, Maisie's own well-being is threatened by a conniving businessman who has her committed to an asylum when she threatens to squeal about his crooked business practices.
