剧情介绍
影片根据杰克瑞治的原著改编而来，描述一名濒临破产的中年花花公子Henry Graham（沃尔特·马修 饰）企图追求一名富有的女子，并且要在六周内完成任务，但最后他找到的对象竟是一名笨得不可理喻的富婆。在一连串捧腹大笑的故事中Henry Graham也受到大大小小的教训。本片是部笑料百出的浪漫喜剧，伊莲·梅在本片中一人身兼编、导、演三职，同时影片上映后成绩都非常不错，一向出色的沃尔特·马修与之相比都略逊一筹。Henry Graham is a man with a problem: he has run through his entire inheritance, and is completely unequipped to provide for himself. His childhood guardian, Uncle Harry (a deliciously mean-spirited James Coco), refuses to give him a dime, and Henry, completely unwilling to exercise the only solution he sees--suicide-- devises a plan with the help of his imaginative butler: he can make money the old-fashioned way--he can marry it. With a temporary loan from Uncle Harry to tide him over, Henry has six weeks to find a bride, marry her, and repay the money, or else he must forfeit all his property to his uncle. With only days remaining, Henry meets clumsy, painfully shy heiress Henrietta Lowell (played by director Elaine May). She's the answer to his prayers--if only Henry can overcome the obstacles placed in his path by Uncle Harry, Henrietta's lawyer, and Henry's own reluctance to wed.
