The Reformer and the Redhead is a 1950 American romantic comedy film written, produced and directed by Norman Panama and Melvin Frank, and starring June Allyson and Dick Powell.
Kathleen Maguire (Allyson) is the daughter of a long-time zookeeper Dr. Kevin G. Maguire (Cecil Kellaway), who is fired from his job for political reasons. She turns to crusading young attorney, Andrew Rockton Hale (Powell), for help. Trouble comes both in the form of political corruption and a loose lion.
