7/10
Seven is generous, I know!
20 June 2016
Warning: Spoilers
A comedy of manners that out-stays its welcome, thanks mainly to the fact that it is over-blessed with talk, talk, talk! True, the actual situations did hold out some promise, but thanks to Hollywood's usual timidity in dealing with any plot twists that were even mildly risqué, we are left with just an overdoes of dull talk, compounded by the fact that director Gregory La Cava's pace is tiresomely slow.

Talk, talk, talk! Those viewers who like to have their ears bashed will not be disappointed. I will admit there are a few moments of quiet chuckles here and there, thanks to the expertise of Walter Connolly, Franklin Pangborn and Miss Rogers herself. And I liked Jack Carson as the sailor with love and romance on his mind!
