Overview

B.G. Bruno, a rich bachelor, the head of a successful greeting-card company in Scotland, is essentially a kind man but respectable to the point of stodginess and extreme stuffiness. An American troupe visiting Edinburgh wants to produce a musical in town but has trouble getting backers. Bruno meets several of the leading ladies of the show; through a misunderstanding he doesn't correct they think that he's a newspaper reporter. He falls in love with one of the women, who reciprocates; he grows more lively and friendly, to the surprise of his employees. After a series of mishaps and comic incidents comes a happy ending: a successful show and true love.

    "Bruno" (David Niven) is your stereotypical Scottish entrepreneur. He is firm, canny and not prone to lavish behaviour. When his driver gives a lift to a visiting showgirl, and she arrives at the theatre where impoverished impresario "Frost" (Cesar Romero) is struggling to convince John Laurie not to repossess the scenery, the germ of an idea is formed. He thinks she is the rich man's girlfriend and so offers her the lead in the hope the she can get him to invest. Snag? Well she (Vera-Ellen) has never even met "Bruno", and when they eventually do he leaves her under the impression that he's som...
