Auto magnate Jim Buchanan (Herbert Marshall) meets an unemployed woman named Joan (Jean Arthur) in a park, and she suggest that they apply for a position as cook and butler. They get the job, but Joan does not know Jim's real identity.
If You Could Only Cook is a charming little comedy. Apparently Columbia marketed this as a Frank Capra film in Europe, but it's better then the two Frank Capra comedies I've seen. Marshall and Arthur are wonderful together, and Leo Carrillo is good as the ex-bootlegger they work for, and I liked Lionel Stander too.
First time viewing. 4/5
