Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaAuthor Richard Llewellyn was strongly opposed to the casting of Cary Grant, demanding to know how the 40-year-old actor could play a teenager.
- GoofsAs Ernie and Henry part at the end, a flute is playing a slow, sorrowful dirge. There is a flautist leaning against the wall, and it appears that he should be the one playing; however, his finger movements are more along the lines of a fast jig than a slow dirge.

Featured review
Dialogue rescues a cliche story
The enjoyment in this movie comes from dialogue that anyone of us would wish to have said - rather like the dialogue written by Raymond Chandler in his Marlowe novels. Other reviewers have mentioned the best lines, but I would add one spoken by June Duprez to Cary Grant - "I told him I had about 20 kisses left in me, and he wasn't getting one of them." She is excellent in the role of Ada, plausible, lovely to look at, and delivers the best lines flawlessly.
