A real screwball comedy that simply doesn't work because of the silliness of the whole situation. Susan Lane, (Roz Russell) meets Lee Bowman (Kent) and he falls for her immediately. She, a psychiatrist, is true to her profession. She acts as if she is above everyone.
What makes this film a stinker is the idea that when the judge, aided by her father, wants to marry Susan, she thinks he literally wants to marry her. You can only go so far with this routine and they go way overboard. There are one or two good moments, especially by butler Harry Davenport, who gives his philosophy about life. Lee Bowman is perfect for the part of Mr. Kent, but the writing here is contrived.
Does the film really end with a dream sequence or what?
