Doris Day’s day starts off badly when she is drenched by a passing limo. She gets angry but does not know the limo passenger (Cary Grant) feels bad and wishes to make amends. Later Grant spots Day from his office and sends Gig Young to make sure she is all right and taken care of. Day’s roommate (Audrey Meadows) is her self-appointed protector of her virtue.
Things quickly move forward when Grant and Day first meet face to face and fall in love. Small-town Day is not sure what to make of millionaire Grant at first as he tries to whirl her off her feet. It is obvious that Grant is trying for more than Day is willing to give out (at least at this stage) and events unfold hilariously.
The plot twists and situations would be at home in a Frank Capra movie. The dialogue is snappy and full of innuendo. Day’s character even has far more depth than Meadows suspects. Although she comes from upstate New York, she manages to hold her own both against and with Grant. It all culminates wonderfully in a way few comedies manage. A must see for fans of classic stars and comedies.
