Sweet Genevieve

1947 · 68 min Comedy
4.5 / 10 · TMDB

The biggest town problem is worrying whether the high school basketball team will win the championship...until racketeers move into town and the kids begin to bet on horses, become overly fond of stripped-down racing cars, and Genevieve Rogers (Jean Porter) suspects her father of being too fond of the school principal's secretary. Town nerd Bill Kennedy (Jimmy Lydon) invents a new fuel amidst rumors that - horrors - the basketball game might be fixed. River City is not the only town that has trouble starting with a "T" and there's not a pool hall in sight.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Sweet Genevieve is an acquired taste at 4.5/10. We recommend checking the trailer and synopsis before diving in.

Not every film is made for everyone. Read the synopsis, watch the trailer — you'll know right away if it's for you.

A classic from 1947. They don't make them like this anymore — which is exactly why you should watch it. Best for: genre fans and those open to something unconventional.
