Danny Kaye was, no doubt, one of the most versatile actors of all times. Although, he was not the John Wayne type he was great in comedies. This movie, with such a clever plot, works well with Kaye's intelligent abilities. Added the visual eye candy of Gene Tierney and Corrine Calvet and all the other scantly dressed chorus women, this movie was stimulating to watch. Interesting about the morals of those days, women in long dresses and public attire, how these movies passed the movie standards is an interesting conundrum. So it was wrong to wear underwear in public but in a movie it was okay?
