A cute little film not designed to be a classic but as a showcase for the talents of Clifton Webb who this is obviously tailored too. He is his usual irascible self, slowly simmering to a boil and ever mindful of his dignity which is stripped away at regular intervals.
Nice to see Frances Dee a pleasant actress who once married to Joel McCrea rarely worked and then often in undemanding supporting roles. Such is her part here but she does well by and is a good balance with Webb's starch.
George Winslow is sweetly endearing as the misfit cub who idolizes the scoutmaster in his own way.
Efficiently directed with a veteran supporting cast this moves along at a quick clip, a most enjoyable diversion.
