Crosby decides to let it all go and settle in the country, then on a whim realizes he can open his country house as a club open on holidays only. The girl he ends up drafting for the floor shows ends up being the love of his life, and the dancing partner Astaire has always been searching for. Astaire, Crosby, and Reynolds have great chemistry together: I thought it quite convincing how Crosby's overprotective zeal scared Reynolds away..."

The Connecticut inn set for this film was reused by Paramount 12 years later as a Vermont inn for the musical White Christmas (1954), also starring Bing Crosby, and again with songs composed by Irving Berlin.
