In the 1930s, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer purchased the rights to a novel written by author Wilson Collison entitled Dark Dame, which they had planned to film with their platinum blonde glamour gal, Jean Harlow. But Harlow's untimely death put the kibosh on that project, and Collison's work didn't reach the silver screen until 1939 when it was refashioned for MGM's new beauty queen (newly acquired from RKO), Ann Sothern, into a romantic comedy entitled 'Maisie.' Sothern played a character named Maisie Revere (her show business name—her real moniker was Mary Anastasia O'Connor) who falls hard for a dude ranch manager (played by a pre-'Father Knows Best' Robert Young), Charles 'Slim' Martin, when she finds herself stranded in Wyoming after a job offer falls through.
