So This Is College

Calculus? Nah. Chem? No way. Russian Lit? Oh, please. College in 1929, in Hollywood at least, was all about girls, football and girls! Robert Montgomery graduates summa cum laughter in this rah-rah musical, playing a football star who lets a devious coed come between himself and his buddy (Elliott Nugent). Actual USC-Stanford game footage provides much of the gridiron action. And the two young actors would go on to first-string careers: Montgomery as one of the top leading men of the Golden Age and Nugent as a successful playwright (The Male Animal) and director (The Male Animal, My Favorite Brunette).
