Tammy Tell Me True

Tammy lives on a boat on the Mississippi. One day she decides to leave the river and go to school. She enrols at a college called Seminola. The college takes a few students on special terms. Tammy brings her boat along with her. The Ellen B is towed up near the campus. She goes on living aboard it. The people she meets on campus find her odd. Buford Woodly, a painter, catches her interest. Her path crosses with Miss Jenks, the Dean of Women. She warms to Tom Freeman, who teaches the public speaking class. What is between them develops slowly. The person Tammy really affects is Annie Call, elderly and wealthy. Mrs Call is one of the benefactors of the college. In the end she comes and moves aboard Tammy’s boat. The film is about a country girl meeting a campus. Sandra Dee and John Gavin appear in the ninety seven minute film, an American production Harry Keller finished in 1961.
