The story begins with a break from a ladies' chain gang. Dr. Rosemary Walsh is one of the prisoners and she's handcuffed to a lady who is about to escape. Once the guard (the dumbest guard in film history) is overwhelmed, Rosemary is forced to go along with the other escaping prisoners...though she has no interest in escaping since her sentence is almost complete. Her intention is to turn herself in to the authorities as soon as possible, but because she's a doctor, she ends up sticking around and treating some needy country folk. In the process, she ends up meeting Dr. Steve Carey...and she tells him her true identity. He decides to help her and soon the pair fall in love. What's next? See the film.
One part of the film that might shock you is the film's handling of race. If you are the sort who cannot watch an old film if there's politically incorrect content, then try some other movie! I see it as a sad product of the times...and looked past it.
So, despite the film's handling of race, is it any good? Well, compared to most PRC movies, this one is pretty good...though this isn't saying much since nearly 90% of PRC's films were awfully bad! This one isn't great, as so much of the plot seems far-fetched...especially at the end. But it is enjoyable and makes for a decent time-passer despite its very humble origins.
