Story: Eleanor Harris, co-writer Stephen Morehouse Avery. Hartman wrote The Princess Comes Across and Road films.
Betsy Drake bumps into pediatrician Cary Grant and decides she will marry him. She proceeds to dig, track and stalk whilst friend Diana Lynn looks on (weirdly Lynn gets a higher billing than Drake. Ah, I see - it was Drake's debut; Lynn really doesn't have much to do). Meanwhile Drake pretends to date Franchot Tone to make Grant jealous.
Liked the mothers' meeting where they all confess to having manipulated their husbands into marrying them.
Photography George Diskant, music Leigh Harline. RKO's most successful picture of 1948. Exec produced by Dore Schary
Grant is smiley and happy-looking, perhaps as he was falling in love with Drake - they married the next year, divorced 1962.
