Editorial Reviews

A post-war comedy about a serviceman (William Lundigan) who thinks he's returning home for a blissful reunion with his wife (June Haver). Instead he finds that she has bought a run-down apartment building, and along with it, a long list of expensive repairs and crazy tenants. Complicating matters, the husband wants his "old army buddy" to move into one of the apartments - but neglects to tell his wife that the "buddy" is a seductive ex-WAC plyed by none other than Marilyn Monroe! Then, a con-man who's wanted by the FBI moves into the building, ensuring that there isn't a moment of peace and quiet for anyone who lives there. When a series of hilarious domestic fights result over the unwelcome residents, there's absolutely no place like this home!

5.0 out of 5 stars Adorable November 6, 2001
By A Customer
Format:VHS Tape
Some films aren't really 5 stars, but because of their charm and actors, you make an exception. Monroe shines in this cute little movie. I would say you need to be a true Monroe fan to really appreciate this one. It has a simple somewhat slow plot, but gee who can resist a black and white with her in it?

5.0 out of 5 stars Marilyn Monroe is your next door neighbor! October 11, 2000
Format:VHS Tape
Story about a young married couple who become landlords to an apartment building full of interesting tennants - including Marilyn Monroe (as Roberta). Marilyn is beautiful, funny, and charming as the "sex symbol" of the house. This is a cute romantic comedy - a sweet, simple movie about love, money, and trust. Would you trust your husband living next door to sexy Marilyn Monroe??

3.0 out of 5 stars not enough of monroe May 17, 2006
Format:DVD
as a younger viewer (not born until the 1970's) I am just discovering Monroes films. I like "7 year itch", "Niagra" and "dont bother to knock", but this film doesn't have enough Monroe. If they didnt put her on the cover and pretend it was a Monroe film Im sure alot less people would have purhchased it. She isnt even well casted for the role. She doesn't look like she would have been a WAC.

The film is okay, but its nothing worth owning. The plot is really stupid and the jokes aren't that great. All the actors did a great job, but there is only so much you can do with a silly premise like this...

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun movie.
This is a fun and cute movie. A young and relatively unknown Marilyn Monroe and also Jack Paar have roles in it. If you love old movies like I do, you'll enjoy this one.
