"This is a fun romantic comedy starring Bob Hope and Lucille Ball. They play a married couple, with Bob Hope playing the role of a brutally honest theater critic. His wife, Lucille Ball, is writing a play about her childhood with her two sisters. His ego gets in the way, feeling that his wife is stepping into a profession that he has had all to himself. During the entire movie, you wonder what sort of a review he will give the play. It was fun seeing these two great comedians at work. I also enjoyed watching a very young Rip Torn play the role of an extremely energetic theater director."
