It was hard to find a hero in this film. The three smart girls are all manipulating liars, determined to drive their father's fiancé out of his life. Their father hasn't seen his daughters in ten years, for no readily apparent reason, and does everything he can to drive them away when they first attempt to reconnect with him. The daughters find an ethically challenged drunk to charm their father's fiancé away from him, but he's too drunk to do the job. So Ray Milland stumbles into the role, happily taking on the job of seducing the father's fiancé and leading her on, because in reality he wants to impress and seduce one of the daughters.
The weirdest scene is when Ray Milland and Deanna Durbin get into an argument in a park. Ray Milland shakes Deanna Durbin so violently that a key she's hiding in her bra falls out. A cop walk up to them and ... arrests Ray Milland? Of course not. The cop takes them to a park bench, wakes up a poor homeless bum who is sleeping on the bench, forces him to leave, then offers the now-empty park bench to Milland and Durbin to sit on!
But yeah, Deanna Durbin is really cute.
