Jimmy Sutton, a tricky publicist for Consolidated Pictures, has been tasked with finding the perfect leading lady for his latest film project. He has narrowed down his search to a talented actress named Trudi Hovland, who hails from the snowy state of Minnesota.
After several years of competition, Trudi managed to secure a spot as the next choice for the lead role in the movie adaptation of the best-selling novel "Girl of the North". Her performance was so impressive that it earned her widespread acclaim and recognition.
However, Jimmy's job wasn't done yet. He had to find a way to make the relationship between Trudi and Roger Maxwell more appealing. Roger, a new rising star, desperately needed to boost his image and gain more recognition in Hollywood.
Jimmy devised a plan to create a romantic connection between the two actors. He set up a fake date between them and arranged for them to meet at a fancy restaurant in Los Angeles. The plan seemed foolproof until Roger confessed his love for Trudi during their dinner.
To add insult to injury, Jimmy had to come up with a story to explain why Roger was suddenly so interested in Trudi. He fabricated a story about how Roger had fallen in love with Trudi after meeting her on a skiing trip in Minnesota.
The deception worked, and Trudi ended up falling for Roger's charming personality and charismatic persona. However, Jimmy's scheme backfired when he realized that he had created a genuine romance between the two actors.
In the end, Trudi became the lead actress in the film adaptation of "Girl of the North", and Jimmy's job as a publicist came to an end. But he learned a valuable lesson about the importance of authenticity and honesty in relationships.
