Comment
Two Oxford undergraduates persuade their friend (Jack Benny) to impersonate the aunt of one of them so they propose to their girlfriends. Meanwhile the real aunt (Kay Francis) arrives, but undercover. This is an entertaining version of the stage play with Jack Benny good in the lead role and Kay Francis as the elegant real aunt.
