I agree with the minority reviews that this film didn't quite click. Scenes were too long. The pratfalls too frequent. The plot and characters too flimsy. I found the hotel owner to be more irritating than amusing. Jean Arthur and Edward Arnold were solid but not great. Ray Milland did not make much of an impression. Franklin Pangborn probably was the highlight of the acting. I love slapstick but this film just didn't quite work for me. With all the talent in this film it should have been much much better. Read a couple of the less positive reviews which give more detail about the shortcomings of this film. Unfortunately they are right.
