Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): In an early scene with his office secretary, Borland (Douglas) mispronounces the word "municipal". It came out "muniCIpal," as though the word was the name of a building rather than a category of building. more

This is one of the best post war comedies. The performance of Paul Douglas is perfect against Linda Darnell. It has been said that Celeste Holm had to learn how not to sing, in order that she carry out this role.
