Spring fever grips the Hilton family and their acquaintances in this low-keyed but delightful comedy set in London on the first day of spring., 18 February 1999
7/10
Author: Arthur Hausner (genart@volcano.net) from Pine Grove, California

The Hilton family awakens to a lovely, warm and sunny first day of spring and soon each are enmeshed in affairs of the heart. It's a thoroughly underrated situation comedy with a few twists. Roland Young steals the movie with his persistent wooing of Frieda Inescourt, but then again he has the best lines. Walter Woolf King is also excellent trying to repel the clinging Olivia de Havilland every time his wife leaves the studio. It's all verbal humor and it's a feel-good movie well worth seeing.
