Small Town Girl is a 1953 American musical film directed by László Kardos and starring Jane Powell, Farley Granger, and Ann Miller.
The film was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Original Song, "My Flaming Heart", with music by Nicholas Brodszky and lyrics by Leo Robin.
Rick Belrow Livingston (Farley Granger), on his way to elope with self-obsessed Broadway star Lisa (Ann Miller), is sentenced to 30 days in jail for speeding through a small town.
After spending a night out on the town with him, Cindy starts to fall for Livingston, but Papa Schlemmer (S. Z. Sakall) wants her to marry his son (Bobby Van) whose real ambition is a career on Broadway.
Country music star Hank Williams was reportedly offered the bit role of the sheriff by MGM producer Joe Pasternak, which he turned down.
