After slipping and falling outside the home of his dinner hosts, an acerbic radio personality (Monty Woolley) is forced to move into their home as he recuperates over Christmas. He quickly wears out his welcome. Based on a play by George S. Kaufman and Moss Hart, this under-appreciated holiday comedy stars Bette Davis as Woolley’s incredibly patient assistant, and features Ann Sheridan, Billie Burke and Jimmy Durante. “A deliciously wicked character portrait and a helter-skelter satire.” – Bosley Crowther, New York Times.
