City Girl is a romantic drama film directed by German film director F.W. Murnau. The movie centers around a young woman named Kate, who works as a waitress in Chicago and dreams of a better life. Kate meets a young farmer named Lem, who has come to the city to sell his family's wheat crop. Although the two come from very different backgrounds, they fall in love and Lem convinces Kate to marry him and move to his family's farm in rural Minnesota.
Kate is excited about the prospect of a new and better life in the country, but when she arrives at the farm, she finds herself struggling to fit in with Lem's family and their way of life. She quickly realizes that farmer life is hard work, and the family's expectations for her are high. Kate's father-in-law expects her to contribute to the farm and help with the difficult work involved in running the farm. On the other hand, Lem's mother does not think Kate is good enough for her son and begins to resent her.
As time goes on, Kate finds it hard to adjust to the hard work of the farm, and tensions rise between her and Lem. However, as they work through their differences and learn to understand each other, their love blossoms.
The film is known for its stunning visuals, with Murnau using breathtaking cinematography to capture the Midwest landscape. The movie was released in 1930 and was praised for its realism and its portrayal of a marriage between people from different backgrounds.
