- TriviaBurt Reynolds once said of this movie: "It's the story of my life! It's about a guy who has everything in the world except the one thing he desires most - a child. This one is much closer to who I am and what I am than most of my other movies. Personally, it's one of my very favorite pictures".

Featured review
Bachelor Burt Reynolds, feeling the childless pangs of loneliness, 'hires' perky, bubbly Beverly D'Angelo to have his baby--but will she win him over into matrimony? Tepid, safe, sitcom-like fluff with the star phoning in his appearance. Comedian David Steinberg directs as if he's submitting the film for possible placement on a network schedule. Reynolds, cozy at this point with his box-office clout, felt no need to stretch his acting muscles and quickly began churning out easy comedies that required nothing more from him than a lift of his eyebrow and a quizzical crack in his voice. D'Angelo walks off with the picture, what there is of it to take. * from ****
