Lady Godiva Rides Again

Lady Godiva Rides Again

1951 ★ 5.8
as Larry Burns

Marjory Clark wins a competition in her Midland town and finds herself in a Festival of Britain procession as Lady Godiva - though not in the buff. This leads by way of a suspect beauty competition to the show-business world of London. But it could be a slippery slope for simple home-town Marge.
