Overview

While recovering in a hospital, war hero Jefferson Jones grows familiar with the "Diary of a Housewife" column written by Elizabeth Lane. Jeff's nurse arranges with Elizabeth's publisher, Alexander Yardley, for Jeff to spend the holiday at Elizabeth's bucolic Connecticut farm with her husband and child. But the column is a sham, so Elizabeth and her editor, Dudley Beecham, in fear of losing their jobs, hasten to set up the single, childless and entirely nondomestic Elizabeth on a country farm.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A charming wartime romantic comedy about a magazine columnist forced to construct an elaborate domestic fantasy for a recovering soldier, watching her carefully curated lie unravel in increasingly farcical ways. It's fizzy, warm-hearted, and delighted by its own contrivances.
