Judy Holliday is Solid Gold!
Judy Holliday shines as an idealistic stockholder who uncovers corruption at the top rung of a major corporation in this lighthearted romantic comedy.
Holliday stars as Laura Partridge, a small-time stockholder who creates havoc at a board meeting, falls in love with the former Chief Executive Officer (Paul Douglas), and wrests control of the corporation from its selfish, corrupt board of directors.
Fred Clark (How to Marry a Millionaire, Sunset Boulevard) also stars.
Adapted from the hit Broadway comedy by George S. Kaufman and Howard Teichmann, The Solid Gold Cadillac was tailor-made to fit Holliday's beloved-yet-shrewd dumb-blonde persona. She had previously taken the Best Actress Oscar (Born Yesterday, 1951) for such a role, and both the public and the critics made this another hit for Holliday.
