Even with George Cukor as director, this comedy is lame. The script is boring with predictable slapstick. Without her usual lighting to mask her crossed eyes, and the gorgeous Adrian costumes, Shearer is not glamorous. George Sanders' talents are wasted with his one-dimensional character. Taylor knocks himself out to be funny, but isn't. What a shame this was Shearer's last movie compared to her many earlier triumphs.
