      Audience Member A little piece of amusing fluff that seemed to be the comedic norm in the Forties. The cast is likeable and Jane Wyman has a great pair of gams to be sure. Niven as the stuffy concert pianist who's ownership of an apartment house full of odd characters final transforms him into becoming like the rest of us "normies". Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Tom M Among the best light romantic comedies of that era. Niven is brilliant as the naive concert pianist who falls for beautiful, sexy Wyman ( Yes, Wyman is sexy here!). The icing on the cake is charming Victor Moore who plays matchmaker as only he can. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/04/21 Full Review Audience Member Harmless drivel. Attractive cast. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/02/21 Full Review Audience Member gr8 all star cast makes this 1 go Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
