Story Line:
Prudence travels to an isolated Texas town where she has inherited the local paper.

Support comes in the unexpected shape of the gambler she has just bested in New Orleans for her own family reasons.

Reviews:
“Claudette Colbert looking far too old and matronly for the part of an ambitious small-town journalist and card sharp Colbert certainly doesn’t look matronly in this film - she’s just as slender and attractive as ever.

I’ve just attended the WIllimasburg Film Festival, which showed this film. It has great meaning for Gregory Walcott- it was his “breakthrough” role, and his wife was pregnant with his first child, which she gave birth to a week after the movie finished filming.

In Walcott’s biography, Hollywood Adventures, he tells the story of how he first met Colbert, who was concerned that he was so much younger than she was. But if older leading men can be put in with actresses 20 years younger than them, than women should be able to get the same treatment.

It is a bit episodic, but fun nevertheless.” written by Film_Dex on IMDb.com

“This was Claudette Colbert’s second to last theatrical feature and if this was the quality of scripts she was being offered at that time it’s no wonder she stayed away six years between this and Parrish. First of all she belongs in some urbane urban setting not the Old West and try though she might she is out of place there. Additionally she and Barry Sullivan, always a dull leading man no matter his costar, go together like oil and water sharing zero romantic chemistry. The script is ordinary and the direction not terribly exciting plus the film is soft and fuzzy with over-bright color. If you” Written bz jjnxn-1 on IMDb.com
