Mary "Mame" Carson (Jane Russell) is an oil heiress with a fortune so immense that it intimidates most men, leaving only an eager line of gold-digging suitors. In search of true love, Mame, in disguise, goes on a cruise and soon falls for a suave Frenchman named Pierre DuQuesne (Gilbert Roland). Little does she know that Pierre -- who claims he loves her -- not only knows her identity but also was hired by her domineering guardian (Arthur Hunnicutt) to keep away men looking for money.

Hermione L May 7, 2010 There were a couple of good songs. I particularly remember and enjoy "Any Gal From Texas". However, the movie itself was very dated and bland. I definitely wanted to like it more than I did, but it was too dull. (First and only viewing - 5/23/2010) See more
