LUCY'S MOVIE GUIDE
Susan Middlecott (Rosalind Russell), is a highly respected college dean. As can be expected, Susan is too busy for romance, at least until handsome professor Alec Stevenson (Ray Milland) enters the picture.
At first, the dean and the professor are thrown together by the overzealous machinations of a press agent, and they're none too pleased about it. No matter how hard they try to keep their distance from each other, Susan and Alec constantly find themselves in embarrassing situations in full view of the public.
It takes the behind-the-scenes maneuvers of Susan's puckish papa (Edmund Gwenn) to straighten things out.
Special Notes: A Woman of Distinction serves as a tailor-made vehicle for Rosalind Russell. Appearing in unbilled cameos are Lucille Ball as herself, and Ball's future TV cohort Gale Gordon as a railroad ticket agent.
