Comment
A mild mannered accountant (Edward Evert Horton) discovers his more brash alter ego who walks out of a mirror and into his life. This is an entertaining film of a man discovering the other side of his character as his alter ego sets up a risky business deal, goes out with a married woman (Ursula Jones) and romances his wife (Genevieve Tobin). This essentially a vehicle for the comic talents of Edward Evertt Horton, which de does well. There is good support from Genevieve Tobin as his wife rediscovering her love and Ursula Jones as the married woman falling for his charms.
