The film focuses on dying man who wishes to meet his granddaughter's fiancé, but he is unavailable, so the woman persuades another man to substitute for him. Then the grandfather recovers. The film is a remake of the 1941 film It Started with Eve, with the genders reversed. Young heiress Cynthia Dulaine (Sandra Dee) visits a fancy nightclub, where she is charmed by performer Warren Palmer (Andy Williams), who proposes to her in front of the entire audience. Shortly after, she is informed that her wealthy grandfater Philip Dulaine (Maurice Chevalier) is dying. Even though the media are on top of the case, Cynthia boards the next plane in Boston to visit him. Philip admits that he regrets that she has never found the right man, but she insists that "kind, considerate and handsome" Warren is the one who she wants to spend the rest of her life with. Philip fears that Warren loves her only because of her money and fame, but Cynthia tells him that he is just as rich. Stuck because of airport difficulties, Warren is unable to follow Cynthia. LESS
