A light comedy with a number of slapstick gags, this film works thanks to the stars' chemistry and Ball's timing. Ball and Arnaz buy a trailer that costs five times what they were planning to spend, and their travels in this house-on-wheels provide the laughs. Credit must be given to
director Minnelli and script writers Goodrich and Hackett for keeping the humor flowing smoothly and not letting things become heavy-handed. Ball and Arnaz made this film when their TV show "I Love Lucy" was a hit.
