This movie is a mix of screwball comedy and murder mystery, with some blackmail thrown in, as well as a wandering turtle who makes appearances at inopportune times, all thrown into a house in Greenwich village.
Loretta Young and Brian Aherne play a married couple who just moved into the basement apartment, a perfect atmosphere for him to write a (hopefully) bestselling mystery novel. But they get a heck of a lot more than they bargained for!
Mr. Aherne does a great job, as he uncovers the blackmail scheme, and discovers the murderer, while Ms. Young is her usual topnotch self. There's also Gale Sondergaard, who's.....Gale Sondergaard, that speaks for itself.
Not a bad way to pass the time.
