Both Roz Russell and James Stewart shine in this 1940 comedy where a young guy from Minnesota writes a play, comes to New York and meets the star of it and quickly marries her. The play turns into a success and the playwright is established.
Four years later, Stewart develops writer's fatigue or bloc and he soon finds inspiration from Genevieve Tobin whose voice sounded almost like Billie Burke.
With the world at war now, Stewart gets the idea to write a dramatic play. Spending more time with his inspiration writer, Russell becomes jealous and is warned by her husband, humorously played by Charles Ruggles, an investment guy from Wall Street. Things change rapidly and both parties agree to divorce to marry each other's mate.
The ending is so good where Russell sees something in his drama, which others deemed as a plot as the two reunite.
Louise Beaves alternates as an actress and maid to the Stewart-Russell couple.
An enjoyable comedy so rich in substance.
