Martha Raye vehicle about stolen jewels, mistaken identity, and a faked marriage. Toni: Shirley Ross. Mike: Robert Cummings. Count: Monroe Owsley. Tom: Louis DaPron. Directed by George Archainbaud., Paramount’s resident “big mouth” Martha Raye was afforded her first top-billed screen assignment in Hideaway Girl. The script would have us believe that rambunctious heroine Helen (Raye) is a high-society debutante with a fondness for singing. The plot is set in motion by a stolen necklace, apparently stolen by Helen. She’s innocent, of course, as is another suspect named Mike (Robert Cummings) whom she pretends to marry to save him from arrest. The meaning of the film’s title is clarified in the final scene, wherein Helen hides herself on the yacht of the actual thief (Monroe Owsley). In the tradition of Martha Raye’s signature tune “Mister Paganini,” Hideaway Girl serves up a forgettable little ditty called “Beethoven, Mendelsohn and Liszt.”
