CGiii Comment

It's not exactly the easiest film to follow...

A brother and sister swap identities (i.e. clothes) to entrap an unfaithful boyfriend.

It's rambling and it's rubbish.

Oh c'mon...just because it's old doesn't make it any good.


Watch...

The(ir) Blurb...

Mabel is engaged to Harry, the boss's son. The boss has an eye for Mabel too, in this gender-bending comedy of errors and mistaken identities.
