Excellent, Without a doubt!!

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

Each assumes the other is a wealthy guest.NOTES: Academy Award, Mickey Rooney, Best Male Juvenile of 1938.COMMENT: When MGM made a "B" movie, the same polish and craftsmanship went into the production as in the studio's "A" features. And in the "B" department, Edwin L. Marin was the top of the heap. His other 1938 films were two features with Judy Garland and The Chaser (again starring Dennis O'Keefe). This one is a slight but pleasant romantic comedy, in which O'Keefe (taking the lead for the first time in a career that encompassed numerous walk-ons and bit parts) was partnered with the lovely Maureen O'Sullivan.

During the Great Depression, audiences liked to see the differences between rich and poor people played for laughs. This frothy romance from 1938 is in that vein. If you like mix-ups, silly situations and innocent fun in the classic Hollywood spirit, this should appeal to you.Maureen O'Sullivan and Dennis O'Keefe play working-class folks in the big city who happen to meet under confusing circumstances. They quickly fall in love, but each gets the mistaken impression that the other is rich.As the romance heats up, the two try harder and harder to impress each other with bogus details of their "privileged" lives. But each feels ashamed of being a phony, and each dreads the day when the truth comes out.The girl's wacky relatives (including a younger brother played by Mickey Rooney) take her wealth charade to extraordinary lengths, and their antics supply most of the comedy in the film. Some of the gags are dated, but a few are still laugh-out-loud funny. The main problem is with the leads. While O'Sullivan was perfectly cast in this movie, O'Keefe was not. He was more suited to tough guy roles than to this kind of gentle fluff. But he deserves credit for trying hard. The same could be said for the picture itself.

My summary isn't really meant as an insult, really, as the film has few pretenses and is meant as a light and harmless little love story. It is what it is...and it's enjoyable. It stars the amazingly ordinary looking actor, Dennis O'Keefe, and Maureen O'Sullivan. Again, I really meant no offense--O'Keefe was a fine actor (particularly in film noir) but looked absolutely nothing like a film star. Handsome, perhaps--just not in the Hollywood sort of way.The story is a cute little case of mistaken identity. Poor working-class Maureen and Dennis both see each other at a swank party of the elite. They instantly hit it off--and both assume the other is rich! And, at times, each is a bit ashamed of their roots and pretend to be a lot richer and more sophisticated than they really are. This takes on a crazy edge when Maureen convinces her family to help her in the ruse. Although she thinks they did a horrible job and Dennis saw through their plan, he is so worried about making the right impression that he's really oblivious. Can they somehow fall in love AND be happy and poor? Well...what do you think? The film is pretty predictable but the actors and director did a good job with what they had. Despite a light-weight script, it's all good fun and well worth seeing.

The worst thing about this charming, well acted comedy is its generic title. Hold what kiss?The leads are at their romantic best. The supporting players are delightful.I personally would have preferred it sans the Mickey Rooney character but he doubtless helped its box office (if it had any.)A few stereotypes are engaged in, too; but otherwise, it is a charming concoction. It's funny: O'Sullivan's boss Monsieur Maurice is written very broadly but the penultimate scene in which a tricked O'Keefe tricks her by making her pose in one gown after another after another -- they now know each other to be in retail and not in society -- is very funny.
