Featured review
I love Lucy, and she's adorable as usual in this pleasant outing, but James Ellison shows why he should have been cast in many more and different roles.
Yes, he was a great cowboy, but as a leading man, he was good-looking and manly and confident and in control.
As another reviewer said, this is pleasant fluff; and it has a story that has been used probably countless times in one form or another, but the four major characters are played so well, with Lee Bowman as the competitor for the rich woman and Mantan Moreland as his chauffeur, it's more than worth watching, just to see them.
Other, even unbilled, performers such as the great Earl Hodgins, work beautifully under director Garson Kanin and make this fun and worth the time. Enjoy.
