Frances Langford | All-American Co-Ed (1941) Musical Comedy Films Full Movie

All-American Co-Ed is a 1941 American musical film produced and directed by Leroy Prinz as a Hal Roach Streamliner for release by United Artists. It stars Frances Langford, Johnny Downs, Marjorie Woodworth, Noah Beery Jr., Esther Dale, Harry Langdon, and The Tanner Sisters. Quinceton College Zeta fraternity stages a revue with members in drag. The resulting publicity catches the attention of newspaperman Hap Holden (Harry Langdon) and Virginia Collinge (Frances Langford). They convince Virginia's aunt Matilda Collinge (Esther Dale), president of failing Mar Brynn (a woman's horticultural college), to refute the school's staid image by sponsoring a contest awarding a dozen free scholarships aimed at "unusual girls", winners of pageants for fruits, vegetables and flowers, as women most likely to succeed and to be showcased in a musical presentation during the Fall Festival. To publicize the contest, President Collinge pokes fun at Zeta members as being least likely to succeed and bans them from their campus. For revenge the Zeta chapter president Bob Sheppard (Johnny Downs) is coerced to infiltrate Mar Brynn by entering the contest as "Bobbie DeWolfe, Queen of the Flowers". After falling in love with Virginia, Bob comes clean and assists in staging the show, but includes in the finale a Busby Berkeley-style spelling out of "Zeta" as revenge for the ban. Cast Frances Langford as Virginia Johnny Downs as Bob Sheppard Marjorie Woodworth as Bunny Noah Beery Jr. as Slinky Esther Dale as Matilda Harry Langdon as Hap Holden Alan Hale Jr. as Tiny Kent Rogers as Henry Allan Lane as 2nd Senior Joe Brown Jr. as 3rd Senior Irving Mitchell as Doctor Lillian Randolph as Washwoman (Deborah) Carlyle Blackwell Jr. as 4th Senior Mickey Tanner • Betty Tanner • Martha Tanner as Vocal Trio Never Miss An Upload, Join the channel. https://www.youtube.com/@nrpsmovieclassics

Here’s an interesting excerpt from the Oakland Tribune, written by Wood Soanes on April 27th, 1952 —

“I’d like to go on the stage. I think that I’d learn more about acting there than I can in the studio; and if I am going on in this business I have to learn how to act,” she told him.

At the end of the article, Soanes wrote:

It was her work in “Asphalt Jungle” under the direction of John Houston, that turned the trick. A good role in “All About Eve” followed, and then came 1951 with four pictures in succession, “As Young as You Feel,” “Let’s Make it Legal,” “Love Nest,” and “Clash by Night.” So far in 1952 she has a backlog of “We’re Not Married,” “The Full House,” “Don’t Bother to Knock,” and “Monkey Business” with “Niagara” and “The Greeks Had a Word for It,” to follow.

There doesn’t seem to be much time for any stage work this semester, but if Miss Monroe can get the studio’s permission – she’s under contract to 20th-Fox again – and can find a summer stock job, she’s available. Meantime, marriage is not in the offing no matter what the gossip columnists say about Charlie Chaplin Jr. and Joe DiMaggio Miss Monroe is too busy carving a career to let a little matter like romance come between her and her goal.

After all, she has been plugging along for quite a while now and, with success in her grasp, it would be foolish to get sidetracked.

(The Greeks Had a Word for It was the original title for How to Marry a Millionaire!)
