Synopsis

In this screwball comedy, Herbert Marshall plays a weary industrialist who, on a walk in the park, is mistaken by an unemployed young woman (Jean Arthur) as a fellow job-seeker. They contrive a ruse to pose as a husband and wife butler-cook duo and take a job in the suburbs. A suitable showcase for Arthur’s volcanic charm and comic timing.
