- Synopsis:
Deanna Durbin's feature film debut turned her into an international star almost overnight. A perfect mix of romance, music and comedy, 'Three Smart Girls' was a huge box office hit and was nominated for 3 Academy Awards including Best Picture. Deanna Durbin plays Penny, one of three young sisters living with their divorcee mother (Nella Walker) in Switzerland. When their father (Charles Winninger) announces he is to many again - this time to a beautiful girl about town - their mother is heartbroken. So the three mischievous girls set off for New York with just one aim in mind - to wreck their father's forthcoming wedding plans! When they discover that their father's bride-to-be is nothing but a worthless gold-digger who only loves him for his money, the sisters decide to find her an even richer man to latch onto - with hilarious consequences! A wonderful comedy romp, made irresistible by Deanna Durbin's fresh and effervescent screen personality, 'Three Smart Girls' includes her performing "My Heart is Singing", "Someone to Care for Me" and "II Bacio". - Actors:
