Funny premise seems to go awry when want-to-be actress, Sandra Dee, who is working as a maid, pretends to be an elderly Janpanese woman on the phone, when she is speaking to her boss, executive Bobby Darrin.
The fun starts when Dee moves into the apartment to stay while Darrin is on business in California. Of course, Darrin's trip is canceled and he is amazed to find her acting as though she is living in the apartment.
To complicate matters, Donald O'Connor plays Darrin's boss who is going through a messy divorce and as a result has hidden some valuable paintings in the apartment.
Nita Talbot steals the scenes that she is in as Dee's fellow maid and room mate. In the 1940s Eve Arden would have had this part as the wisecracks that are uttered are most appropriate to her.
The picture gets bogged down with everyone staying in everyone else's apartment. This is not exactly 1960's "The Apartment."
