UK Mr Blandings Builds His Dream House (Blu-ray) (Warner Archive) [UK]
- Thread starter lenticularis
- Start date
New York adman Jim Blandings is ready to say goodbye to his cramped city apartment and build, from the ground up, a Connecticut home with room enough for his growing family and dreams. All it will cost him is his time and money...and perhaps his job, marriage, happiness and what's left of his sanity.
Goodbye, Manhattan. Hello, comedy. As Jim, Cary Grant is a flustered poster boy for homeowner anxiety in this gleeful laughest. Myrna Loy, her voice and line phrasing like musical chimes, plays Jim's ever-patient wife. Louise Beavers is the sunny housemaid whose enthusiasm for Wham Ham saves Jim's career bacon. And Melvyn Douglas is the perhaps-too- friendly family friend. "Drop in and see us sometime," Jim says. Invitation accepted!
Cast: Cary Grant. Myrna Loy. Melvyn Douglas. Reginald Denny. Sharyn Moffat. Connie Marshall. Louise Beavers.
Directors: H. C. Potter. Writers: Melvin Frank. Norman Panama
Genre: Crime. Drama. Neo-Noir.
