Elvira (Janis Paige) and Michael Kent (Don DeFore) get marry but trust is sorely lacking. It's their first anniversary. She books a cruise trip but he claims to be too busy. In her place, she sends nightclub singer Georgia Garrett (Doris Day), a woman she first met at the travel agency. She hopes to stay behind to spy on Michael. Michael is also suspicious and sends private eye Peter Virgil (Jack Carson) on the cruise. Peter and Georgia go together while hiding their secrets.
Doris Day stars in her first movie. She isn't the best actor around. She's playing a blonde with sass. She's a bright shiny thing, she sings, and she tries. That goes a long way. It's all very light, happy, and chipper. All the mistaken identities are worthy of a TV sitcom. The songs are not the most memorable but this got a couple of Oscar nominations for music. It's bright light fun with limited after-thought.
