- TriviaBefore Las Vegas became easily accessible, the state of Maryland was a haven for people who wanted to get married with a minimum of restrictions. Many couples in movies went there to get married quickly. In addition to this film, Spencer Tracy and Katharine Hepburn eloped to Maryland in Woman of the Year (1942), and Rock Hudson and Doris Day woke up in a motel in Maryland legally (to their surprise) married in Lover Come Back (1961).

Featured review
This is a great Cary Grant movie, that never takes it self to seriously. The plot is easy to follow, and the acting is well done. The love story is really secondary to the entire gambling story, and that's where this movie is really good and funny. There have been some comments that the chemistry between the Grant and Day is not great, but I think otherwise. The love story is really the back story, setting the stage for the ending, and keeping the movie light hearted and often times funny. This movie also has a lot of subtle humor, and you need to have somewhat of a "different" sense of humor to appreciate it all. However, this is a great sit down, popcorn, easy to enjoy Cary Grant flick.
