"The Under-Pup" is the 1939 feature film that introduced soprano singing star Gloria Jean to the screen. The story, adapted by Grover Jones from a magazine story by Australian author I. A. R. Wylie, casts Gloria as a streetwise girl who is sent to a summer camp for wealthy girls. She is first bullied by the other girls, but decides to stand up for herself.

The film was well received, and was followed by an unofficial sequel, "A Little Bit of Heaven" (1940). Many of the cast members from "The Under-Pup" appear in the second film, but with different character names.
