Former child star Margaret O'Brien is Betty Foster, the "all growed up"
heroine of Her First Romance. Hoping to rendezvous with handsome
teenager Bobby Evans (Allen Martin Jr.) at a fancy summer camp, Betty
bamboozles her parents into sending her there. Once she's arrived, Betty
proves her devotion to Bobby by committing a robbery on his behalf. She
reasons that since she's robbing her own father's safe, her crime is none
too serious. Boy, is she wrong! A curious blend of comedy, melodrama
and sentiment, Her First Romance failed to establish Margaret O'Brien as
an adult box-office favorite, though the film itself is easy to take.
Featured in the cast are Jimmy Hunt, of Invaders from Mars fame, and
future TV-series perennial Elinor Donahue. Margaret O'Brien's parents
are played by Ann Doran and Arthur Space, who'd later be reteamed on
the weekly TVer National Velvet.
