Collegiate (released in England as "The Charm School"), the 1936 Ralph Murphy romantic college university school campus musical screwball comedy ("The funniest fastest musical comedy you've seen in a duck's age!"; a ridiculous screwball comedy about a broke playboy inheriting a girls' college, which he turns into a charm school, and he finances the renovation with checks from a crazy amnesiac, and after much adventure and romance, the school is about to go broke, when it is revealed that the amnesiac, played by Joe Penner, is actually the REAL Joe Penner, and he bails out the school!) starring Joe Penner, Jack Oakie, Ned Sparks, Frances Langford, Betty Grable, Lynne Overman, Mack Gordon, and Harry Revel. Note that the source story for this movie was previously filmed with Wallace Reid in 1921 as "The Charm School", and in 1928 as "Someone to Love", but this version was obviously tailored for Joe Penner. Also note that Betty Grable, who had appeared in a bunch of minor bit roles, but was just recently gaining credited parts, was fifth billed, playing a charm school student, but her beauty won her a prominent place on the window card!
