Hot Saturday

“They called her 'BAD' ... and she tried to live up to it!”

Ruth Brock (Nancy Carroll) works at the bank in a small town and wants only to be left alone to live a quiet, decent life, engaged to the steady Conny Billop (Edward Woods). Then a rumor spreads that she spent a night with Romer Sheffield (Cary Grant), the rich local with a name for chasing women. William A. Seiter follows the talk as it moves from one porch to the next, and Ruth's job, her engagement and her standing in town are all on the line.
