A new york advertising man who longs to live in the connecticut countryside but finds the way to rural satisfaction. Studio: Turner Hm Entertainm Release Date: 08/22/2006 Starring: Cary Grant Melvyn Douglas Run time: 94 minutes Rating: Nr
Cary Grant stars as an advertising executive who dreams of getting out of the city and building a perfect home in the country, only to find the transition fraught with problems. (See the 1980s Tom Hanks comedy
The Money Pit for an updated version of the same idea.) The big appeal here are the two leads, Grant and Myrna Loy, who were each in their early 40s and at the peak of their careers. Together with solid support from Melvyn Douglas and a screenplay that might have been tailor-made for their polished brand of comedy, the stars dominate this simple project.

| This movie is great and is a fun gift for anyone building a house. SO nice to find old movies on DVD's now. Same great cover and worth the money to have in your collection. |

| Good Old Fashion humor. A couple of Film classic scenes ( the Building Consultant telling Gary Grant "tear it down" or the painting Foreman listening to Myrna Loy explain in great detail the shades of colors that she wants the rooms painted and the Foreman telling the painters "Red, Blue, Green and Yellow" |

| Love the old black and whites and I always enjoy this one. I love having films like this on hand for movie night with my neices. Introduces them to another time and place and no worry about inappropriate language, sex and violence, good clean humor. So funny to think Cary Grant's character felt sorry for the poor guy not fortunate enough to earn $15,000 a year, and Myrna Loy's scene with the painter just cracks me up for some reason. Enjoy! |

| I saw this movie as a child. Obviously it targets a younger audience. Cute movie. Good quality and came quickly. |

| Cary Grant and Myrna Loy are a good pair. Subtle humor of the era makes for easy watching and relaxation. Take time to notice the styles of living and fashion. Highly recommend. |
