The film opens with John sneaking into an orchestra and begging for a job from the conductor, Leopold Stokowski. Stokowski, not accustomed to receiving people from the street, turns John down flat. On his way out of the building he finds a rich lady's purse, dropped on the street.John returns to the boarding house where he shares a room with his teenaged daughter Patsy (Deanna Durbin). Facing imminent eviction because he's broke, John uses the money in the purse to pay rent. When she finds out about this, an indignant Patsy insists on returning the purse. She meets Mrs. John R. Frost, wife to radio magnate John R. Frost, who promises Patsy that her husband will bankroll an orchestra and concert for Patsy's father and all of his unemployed musician buddies. Patsy the Determinator sets out to make it happen.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Real Life orchestra conductor Leopold Stokowski was famous enough to be in this movie and also to be parodied three years later by Bugs Bunny in "Long-Haired Hare".

One Hundred Men and a Girl / int_69cce3dc | comment |
Explain, Explain... Oh, Crap!: Everyone's wondering how the story about Leopold Stokowski sponsoring the orchestra got in the paper. A puzzled Patsy says "The message came directly from Mr. Stokowski's office. Now who on earth could have put that in th—". She then realizes that the man who called Stokowski's hotel room was a reporter and that she accidentally planted the story with him when she answered the phone. | |

"Eureka!" Moment: The sympathetic noises that Mrs. Frost makes about Patsy's father being unemployed, and one rich guy's comment about how "We should sponsor an orchestra!", causes Patsy to realize that her dad and all the other broke, jobless musicians that her dad knows can get jobs together. | |
