Confirmed bachelor neatly evades a woman's efforts to trap him for a husband., 16 October 2000
10/10
Author: stealthviper from us

The interplay between grant and the other characters by itself made this movie a ten for me. It served as yet another reason why this is my favorite actor. The plot-dynamic is a comedy that is funny with out trying explicitly to appear as a comedy. Anabel's duplicitous overtures to trap Madison as a husband, are made even more humorous by Madison's complete mastery of the situation. Always aware of her efforts he neatly side steps them at every turn, only to accept her at the end inspite of her silliness. If you understand how Ricky Riccardo could love Lucy inspite of her antics you will appreciate this movie!
