Odd, almost surrealist tomfoolery, featuring characters' thoughts as voiceover, a pixified score (Franz Waxman), a misbehaving painting and wayward lobsters (did Woody Allen see this?). Made with customary elegance for MGM (George Barnes on camera) though using a limited number of sets. Dana Andrews perhaps not right for the material, Lili Palmer fine, Louis Jourdan quirky, Norman Lloyd most watchable, and Jane Wyatt. Written by Arnold Manoff, directed with some flair by Milestone. Good (uncredited) sketches.
