Good Girls Go to Paris is a 1939 American romantic comedy film starring Melvyn Douglas and Joan Blondell.

Synopsis

Jenny Swanson (Blondell) is a waitress in a small college town whose goal is to go to Paris. Jenny rationalizes a little gold-digging and blackmail to achieve her goal. She tries to explain this to the new professor Ronald Brooke (Douglas), and Brooke in turn tries to dissuade her from such schemes, telling her that "good girls go to Paris, too". When her first attempt at blackmailing ends with an attack of conscience and the necessity of leaving town. Instead of returning to her hometown as advised by Brooke, of whom she has grown fond, Jenny heads for New York. Brooke is also bound for New York where he is to marry the wealthy Sylvia Brand (Joan Perry).

Boxer and amateur pilot Joe Pendleton (Robert Montgomery), affectionately known as "the Flying Pug", flies his small aircraft to his next fight in New York City, but crashes when a control cable severs. His soul is "rescued" by 7013 (Edward Everett Horton), an officious angel who assumed that Joe could not have survived. Joe's manager, Max "Pop" Corkle (James Gleason), has his body cremated. In the afterlife, the records show his death was a mistake; he was supposed to live for 50 more years. The angel's superior, Mr. Jordan (Claude Rains), confirms this, but since there is no more body, Joe will have to take over a newly dead corpse. Mr. Jordan explains that a body is just something that is worn, like an overcoat; inside, Joe will still be himself. Joe insists that it be someone in good physical shape, because he wants to continue his boxing career. Joe keeps saying the body they find "has to be in the pink".
