The synopsis of "The Revolt Of Mamie Stover," which appears in the 20th Century Fox studio press book, suggests that some last minute changes and edits were made to tone down the true nature of the Mamie Stover character. The following scenes were described in the synopsis: (1) The film opens with a scene on a street corner in San Francisco in which Mamie (
Jane Russell) is picked up by a middle-aged man (portrayed by
Stubby Kaye), and then detained by police who suggest she get out of town. (2) A scene occurs between Mamie and Annalee (
Joan Leslie), in which Annalee tells Mamie to stay away from Jimmy (
Richard Egan). (3) Mamie buys her own house on the hill and decorates it in anticipation of Jimmy's return from the war. (4) While Jimmy is away at war, he receives letters from both Annalee and Mamie. Annalee's are more poetic and caring, while Mamie's tell of her increasing fortune from her real-estate properties. (5) The film ends with a scene in a room at the Bungalow Club in which Jimmy rejects Mamie and leaves. Mamie walks down the hall, wipes her tears away, composes herself and enters another room, greeting her latest customer with her tag line, "You waitin' for Mamie, honey?" This suggests that her life will continue in same fashion as it always had: motivated by money at any cost despite a less-than-respectable lifestyle. The final version of the film as released redeems Mamie by cutting out before she greets her next customer and adding a scene in which she returns to San Francisco only to tell the police, who meet her at the dock, that she gave up her fortune and is now returning to her hometown of Leesburg, Mississippi.
