A lame poverty row college drama about a 30 something college student (William Collier Jr.) who is always in trouble, threatened with being disowned by his wealthy father Allen Millbrae and generally creating a ruckus on the campus. He keeps getting involved with the wrong girls, one of whom has the most dreadful Southern accent, while basically ignoring the pretty sensible one (Sari Maritza).
This is one of those creaky poverty row dramas that has not stood well through the test of time, its print much edited (over 20 minutes are gone) which leaves the film with a ton of holes and senseless. Leading man Collier looks closer to his on-screen father's age and is romantically unappealing when seen with the young ladies. Only Mowbray manages to maintain any dignity. I was hoping with a title like "Her Secret", this would be one of those great pre code women's films, but the secret is out. It's just terrible.
