The story

Jimmy Sutton, the publicity agent of a major Hollywood studio, is taking part in the search to find an actress to star in an adaptation of a best-selling novel, Girl of the North. After over 400 actresses have been tested and rejected, he is sent to the small town of Bergen, Minnesota to meet Trudi Hovland, a schoolteacher whose photo and details were unknowingly submitted to the studio. She is doubtful, but with the entire town backing her, Jimmy persuades her to return to Hollywood with him.
