In this entertaining
comedy by
Charles Walters, everyone seems to get in on the act, even the dog and especially the four overactive kids in a wildly challenging family.
David Niven co-stars with
Doris Day as
Lawrence and
Kate Mackay, distinctive parents struggling with home, life, and family.
Lawrence opts for leaving his job teaching at Columbia University in New York for a post as a drama critic for a Gotham newspaper, bringing new problems to the pile the family already owns. First, they are forced to move out -- far out -- to the countryside with their brood and canine. And next, while Kate handles home, hearth, and hellions,
Lawrence proceeds to alienate one of his best friends with a shattering review. That unhappy beginning to his new career also brings in one of the actresses damaged by his cutting remarks (
Janis Paige), who wreaks her own form of havoc on poor
Lawrence. In the meantime,
Day gets to sing some songs which add to the light-hearted attitude of it all.
