Featured review
Poor travel agent Tommy Bradford (Dennis O'Keefe) gets invited by wealthy J. Westley Piermont to his daughter's wedding. Piermont introduces June Evans (Maureen O'Sullivan) to him. They both start lying about themselves to the other. She's also poor and her younger brother Chick (Mickey Rooney) only adds to the lie.
This starts with an interesting premise. I like the couple, but they're not really heating up the screen until after they discovered the truth. After the initial start, the family becomes the more prominent part and their antics are much more fun. Mickey Rooney has third billing in this. It is the third act where the couple comes back hard and it is a fun time.
