Storyline

Senator Cartwright (Adolphe Menjou) and his wife (Myrna Loy) arrive in Paris as the guests of Ambassador Fiske (Edward Arnold). Cartwright has a plan to restrict the city from American soldiers on leave due to their boorish behavior. Fiske's daughter, Joan (Olivia de Havilland), tries to prove that Cartwright is wrong about the soldiers by going on a date with one named Danny (John Forsythe). Although Joan does not reveal her plan, Danny acts like a gentleman, and she starts to fall for him.

Short Review

Typical charming 50's romantic comedy except that the cast takes it over the top. It's hard to take one's eyes off of ageless DeHavilland and Myrna Loy steals every scene she's in. Forsythe is good as the leading man. Great support from Menjou, Arnold, and Watson.
