Leg, arm and hand positions are shown "Positive approach, stressing the fact that everyone can acquire the grace and poise that goes with good posture, is very good." Cleveland "A completely non-academic approach to the subject of posture which should nevertheless be welcomed by teachers of physical education, guidance, dramatics, and home economics, as well as by sponsors of girls' clubs, Is the chief value of this film. Taking advantage of the average girl's desire for something at least approaching Hollywood glamour, it presents effectively a few rules for good posture which are generally shrugged off as just more adult nonsense. Good photography, a sufficient variety of girl models for at least some self-identification, and a pleasantly presented commentary add their appeal for girls from junior high school to college age."
