Add to a movie listMiss Pacific Fleet is a 1935 American film featuring Joan Blondell and Glenda Farrell. The pair is in California, trying to hustle up the money to get back to New York by competing for the title of Miss Pacific Fleet.
This is one of an informal series of four through the early 1930s where Blondell and Farrell were paired as a fast-talking, wisecracking, working-class comedy team: Havana Widows, Kansas City Princess, We're in the Money, and this one. All but Kansas City Princess were directed by Enright. (They appear together, but are not teamed, in Gold Diggers of 1937, I've Got Your Number, and Traveling Saleslady.)
Miss Pacific Fleet is now available, paired with Traveling Saleslady on WarnerArchives made-to-order DVD collection.

New York oil magnate Ben Richards (Charles Winninger) and his family are preparing to leave for Newport for their summer vacation. His spoiled willful daughter Margaret (Olivia de Havilland) refuses to go and storms out of the house, borrowing a car belonging to her father's valet. On the road she notices the car is low on gas and stops at an auto court gas station. The attendant, Bill Davis (Dick Powell), fills up the tank and requests the $3.50 payment. With no money on her, Margaret tries to charge the amount to her father's account, but Bill refuses, not knowing who she is. Instead, he offers to let her work off her debt by making the beds and cleaning the rooms at the auto court motel. Outraged by this suggestion, Margaret attempts to drive off, but backs into a truck preventing her from leaving. When a police officer arrives, Margaret is forced to comply with Bill's offer, and she spends the next few hours making beds and cleaning rooms.
