Dreamboat

Synopsis: Feature film comedy about a college professor (Webb) who is embarrassed when some silent swashbuckling films he made long ago bring him new prominence on television. He tries to stop the films being shown but the hostess, Gloria (Rogers), of the tv show playing his films is his former co-star and she has other plans. As the film opens one of the professor’s students is reciting the ‘to be or not to be’ soliloquy from Hamlet; the rest of the class is clearly bored. the camera then rests on the face of the one student (his daughter, Carol) who is not indifferent and singles her out as a misfit intellectual.
