Louise, whose mother was a model, is a beautiful child but in adolescence turns into a “plain jane.” In high school and college she becomes defensive and anti-social. When Louise enters the workforce, she is still alone until she runs into Dennis, a high school friend. She’d rejected him back then, fearing he felt sorry for her, but he says he’s always liked her. Dennis convinces Louise that her attitude, not her looks, has held her back. Louise’s love for Dennis changes her outlook on life.
