- Andy Hardy's Private Secretary
Andy Hardy's Private Secretary is a 1941 American family film comedy directed by George B. Seitz. The film stars Lewis Stone, Mickey Rooney, Kathryn Grayson, Ann Rutherford and Fay Holden.
Plot
Nearing the end of high school, Andy is keenly anticipating his graduation, but is putting more effort into running the various student committees, most of which he chairs, than studying for his examinations. On his father's advice, he attempts to offload some of the work, asking Kathryn Land (Grayson) to be his private secretary, much to the chagrin of his regular girlfriend Polly Benedict (Rutherford). Kathryn's brother Harry (Todd Karns) takes on the task of designing decorations for the graduation ceremony.
Andy is devastated when he miserably fails his English examination, which means he cannot graduate. He admits his failure to the class and resigns from all committee work. But his friends persuade the school principal that he is allowed by the rules to retake the exam, given his high quality work during the past year, and he passes - but only just.
All ends well, of course. Andy graduates and is given a new car by his father; Kathryn sings at the ceremony, Harry wins the Governor's Prize and is offered a job, and their impoverished father Steven Land (Ian Hunter) gets a job as a court interpreter.
