The best made plans get sidetracked when the boss send his 17-year-old daughter over for a couple of weeks and she ends up married to a Communist and pregnant.
You can't take your eyes off the screen for a second as Capitalist and Communist jokes are flying so fast you can hardly keep up with the. This is Wilder at his best - Cagney, too.
They are assisted by the Golden Globe nominated Pamela Tiffin as the ditzy Southern belle who falls in love with everyone, Horst Buchholz as her East German husband, Golden Globe nominated German actress Liselotte Pulver as the hot secretary that has the Russian trade delegation panting, and many more fine actors and actresses.
This is a classic Wilder comedy and it will keep you in stitches.
