One of those familiar romantic comedies in which the leads continually cross each other’s path before they get together.
This time, pleasant performances from Bobby Darin and his real-life wife Sandra Dee distract attention from the coincidences.
Dee is Joan Howell – an aspiring actress who entertains rich publisher Tom Milford (Darin) in an apartment that she doesn’t own, but works in as a maid.
Unbeknown to her, it’s his apartment. It sounds daft, but you’ve seen worse.
