Starring Joan Blondell, Robert Benchley, Binnie Barnes, Janet Blair, John Howard, Eric Blore Directed by Leigh Jason Print: black/white Runtime: 75 min. Genre: comedy Faith, Hope and Charity motivate the wacky storyline of Columbia's Three Girls About Town- or to be more exact, gorgeous sisters Faith, Hope and Charity Banner, played respectively by Binnie Barnes, Joan Blondell and Janet Blair. Faith and Hope are gainfully employed as New York hotel hostesses, whose job it is to entertain wealthy out-of-town conventioneers (but no hanky panky, if you please!) They've remained in this profession in order to afford the expensive private-school education of their sister Charity, who shows up in the Big Apple in pursuit of her own career, or a wealthy husband, or both. Charity's arrival coincides with several big-time conventions, one of which is being covered by Faith's newspaper- reporter boyfriend Tommy Hopkins (John Howard). Things get dicey when the three girls discover a corpse in one watch
