Alison Kirbe, an English woman who has been corresponding with a man from Texas, is suddenly notified he has died and left her his estate. Little prepares this no-nonsense woman for the adventure she is going to embark as she goes to America where her own future is assured. What she never knows is that three men who want her, for different reasons, are pulling strings to get her money while they are doing their little game behind the scenes. Or for that matter, Alison Kirbe doesn't have a clue as to the real estate value of the property she inherits.
This MGM comedy directed by Norman Taurog, offers some mild fun because of the great work by the principals in this production. It served as a change of pace for its female lead, Deborah Kerr, who had done a lot of dramatic work in the English cinema, as she proved she was well suited for this type of light comedy.
Deborah Kerr is seen in a luxury ship in this film, a place in which she seems a natural, as she plays another romantic lead in the remake of "An Affair to Remember". Ms. Kerr held her own playing opposite Robert Walker, Peter Lawford, and Mark Stevens. The three men in the story are perfectly cast as each brings his own type of persona to the story. Unfortunately, James Whitmore, J. Carrol Nash, and Spring Byington, who are seen in supporting roles don't have much to do in the film.
"Please Believe Me" marked the arrival of Deborah Kerr to her long association with Hollywood where she would leave her mark throughout the years she graced timeless classics for our enjoyment.
