Дианна Дурбин/ТРИ МИЛЫЕ ДЕВУШКИ/2 часть

"Три милые девушки" (Three smart girls) - 1936г. - первый фильм Дианны (Дины) Дурбин (Deanna Durbin). 2 часть.
Penny (Deanna Durbin), Joan (Nan Grey) and Kay Craig (Barbara Read) are three sisters living in Switzerland. Their parents have been divorced for ten years, yet their mother Dorothy (Nella Walker) can't help but be heartbroken when she learns that her ex-husband, successful American banker Judson Craig (Charles Winninger) is planning on marrying an international beauty. The three girls cannot stand to see their mother so sad, and so they travel to New York, along with their governess Martha (Lucile Watson), intent on stopping the wedding. Their arrival in New York catches Judson by surprise, and makes both his fiancee', Donna Lyons (Binnie Barnes) and her mother (Alice Brady) mad, as they cach on to their plan quickly. Penny, Joan and Kay soon find out that Donna is nothing but a gold-digger who would leave him in an instant if a man with more money came along, a fact which most of Judson's associates and friends already know too well. One of them, Bill Evans (John 'Dusty' King) helps the girls by hiring a poor, drunken Hungarian count (Mischa Auer) to romance Donna, lead her to believe that he is extremely wealthy and thus cause her to drop Judson "like a hot potato." The plan backfires however when the count fails to meet Donna at a nightclub where they are all dining. Kay mistakenly assumes that a man at the bar (Ray Milland) is the count, though he is actually Lord Michael Stuart, a wealthy Australian who is smitten with Kay. He decides to play along with her charade in order to get closer to her, though she becomes infuriated when she believes that he has been spending their money to buy gifts for her when she should be buying things for Donna Lyons. Meanwhile, Judson and Donna announce a wedding date which causes Penny to run away in protest. She is picked up by the police, who make her return home, though she will comply only under one condition: that Donna and Mrs. Lyons be gone upon her arrival. They are gone since Michael has given Donna and her mother two tickets aboard a luxury liner sailing for Europe, tricking them into thinking he wants to marry Donna. Judson then realizes that Donna was planning on marrying him only for his money after all, and is reunited with his ex-wife at the end, while Kay falls in love with Michael Stuart, and Joan with Bill Evans.
