The Show-Off is a 1946 American comedy film directed by Harry Beaumont based on the play of the same name by George Kelly.
Amy Fisher's parents can't understand what their daughter sees in Aubrey Piper, a loudmouth and braggart who pretends to be more than the lowly clerk he is.
He is kicked off a radio show for offending the sponsor and blows Joe's deal with a paint company by demanding the inventor be paid $100,000.
In the end, though, a change of heart from the paint company's boss seals Joe's deal and Aubrey gets the credit, pleasing everyone.
Theatre Guild on the Air presented a one-hour adaptation on February 22, 1953 starring Paul Douglas and Jan Sterling.
