Thirties screwball piled one comic set up after another in no particular order the ending tacked on out of the blue. This is the format spin doctored in this film. June Haver, Marilyn Monroe and William Lundigan offer brilliant comic chemistry which lights up the often plodding plot. Some of the setups go slowly and others like many of a couple getting in over their heads when buying a house to end up happily settled seem trite. Leatrice Joy and Frank Fay are comics from the thirties filmed as the older performers in the comic setups. Jack Paar makes an unusual film appearance more as a bubbly television personality less as a future film star. All in all an enticing period piece worth watching again.
