PLOT SYNOPSIS

"Montgomery played a golfer who helps his sweetheart (Miss Jordan) to win a wager of $3,000 by beating an opponent in a climactic golf tournament."

NOTES

"Based on a 1925 play by Vincent Sherman, and a remake of the 1927 comedy Spring Fever, Love in the Rough was an amiable enough musical. . ."
- Clive Hirschhorn, The Hollywood Musical

Dorothy McNulty would later change her name to Penny Singleton.
