Claudette Colbert is almost through with rose-loving ex Macdonald Carey and when former beau Zachary Scott comes on the scene, she re-engages. Meanwhile fussbudget daughter Barbara Bates (who doesn't seem grown up enough to have a baby) interferes, much to husband Robert Wagner's annoyance. Wagner has the best cracks (on delivering martinis - "Plasma, anyone?") out of Izzy and F. Hugh Herbert's screenplay (story Mortimer Braus). And Marilyn Monroe is a wannabe model - can't think how she got that part.
Has funny moments e.g. Carey talking to himself in front yard, and lines - "I must be tired after your trip". Scott's character is weird - he isn't interested in dancing with Monroe at all. Bates' character annoying.
Did Fox have a house font?
