“That "Born Yesterday" Bombshell Explodes Again!”

Gladys Glover (Judy Holliday) has just lost her modeling job when she runs into Pete Sheppard (Jack Lemmon), a filmmaker shooting a documentary in Central Park. He falls for her on the spot, but she wants a name people will know. A fluke of advertising puts her name on ten billboards across New York, and George Cukor follows how much of her life the signs can swallow.
