View in Flikflix

Lucille Ball stars in this screwball comedy about a movie star who will do--and does do--almost anything to promote herself. Things go wildly out of control as the publicity hungry actress goes on the road when Annabel Takes a Tour. Annabel Allison (Ball) is the star performer at Wonder Pictures Studios, but she becomes insanely jealous when another actress gets more publicity after marrying a titled nobleman. So Annabel turns to her agent, Lanny Morgan (Jack Oakie), whose antic stunts have gotten her in trouble before. And this time, Annabel's antics are in a whole new league as she barnstorms the country. But nothing seems to gain her the notice she seeks, until she finds a titled nobleman of her own to pursue--unaware that he is trying to hide from his wife in this zany romp.
