A charming 50's sex comedy without the sex

Not only a kiss, but a ripped dress. And a rip-off.

Debbie Reynolds is exposed in her undergarments, escorted out by air force sergeant Glenn Ford just as Cary Grant escorted out Katharine Hepburn in "Bringing Up Baby". The next thing you know, they're married and he's overseas. She has to follow him overseas when he wins a car that brought them together after the sweepstakes booth that she was working at. But her arrival in Spain isn't met with the joy she hoped for as she gets him into all sorts of trouble. When they become friendly with a dashing bullfighter, more problems ensue as the car and her lavish lifestyle brings them attention that doesn't sit well with the military.

If there is an older movie where the word " pregnant" is uttered, then I was not paying attention. It's a sign that the 1934 production code was lightening up, but that doesn't make this a good film. There's never any reason to indicate that there's any real attraction between Reynolds and Ford other than the fact that they meet under auspicious circumstances, fight and suddenly wed. Certainly, it's a case of "Taming of the Shrew" where the military is behind the taming. There's talk about obvious intentions of sex, which does add some amusement, but the situation seems truly forced.

Beautiful location Spanish footage helps make this visually interesting, as do a few of the squabbles between Reynolds and Ford. A fun supporting cast including Fred Clark, Harry Morgan and Eva Gabor (whom Reynolds would amusingly do imitations of in her nightclub act) also brings some class. But the situation is never entirely believable, which lowers the score even though it has many admirable qualities.
