      Dr. Lauren Boullard: Mr Chadwick! Mr Chadwick!

      Paul Chadwick: [emerging from his hiding place] Oh! It's you. I wasn't sure

      Dr. Lauren Boullard: Hiding in the closet isn't going to cure you. There's only one thing that will - you're going out tonight

      Paul Chadwick: Out there? They'll get me!

    10/10

    This is one of the best romantic comedies I have seen and should be put on video.

    Rock Hudson is at his best when it comes to romantic comedy. Their is excellent chemistry with the cast of this film. This movie should be on everyone's agenda to see if ever it becomes available. There are a lot of enjoyable laughs and you come away from it feeling good. It will definitely lift your spirits.
