Meyer Levin (Patterson Murphy) Esquire Magazine Done with quite a bit of spontaneous feeling, presenting bubbling, happy Francis Lederer. May 4, 2020 Full Review Emanuel Levy EmanuelLevy.Com Essentially a trifle, this romantic comedy was made by William Wyler before he became a major Hollywood figure. Rated: B- Apr 18, 2012 Full Review Read all reviews

Steve D Overacted and not as clever as it thinks it is. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/06/24 Full Review Audience Member A prince disguising himself as a bellboy falls for a woman disguising herself for a rich 'queen' after she wins a 5,000 dollars lottery. A screwball comedy based around the concept of attraction of opposites. A witty premise, impressive and racy dialogue, and charming overall, The Gay Deception is a real underrated treat of the classic romantic comedy genre. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Girl likes her fried chicken. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Read all reviews
