Plot:
A photographer is assigned to get pictures of the men digging a tunnel under the Hudson River and meets an outspoken man who cannot avoid her.

Quote:

Another of Claudette Colbert's snappy, breezy comedies full of wisecracks and bon mots. She is in top form and supported by a top cast (June Havoc, Richard Haydn, Ilka Chase). The premise is slight - she is a fashion magazine photographer and Fred MacMurray is a sandhog building a new underground transportation tunnel. Opposites attract and they bicker their way towards love. The Art Direction was deservedly Oscar nommed - the elaborate recreation of an underground tunnel under construction - but the witty, sophisticated Screenplay deserved a nod as well. This is in the line of Colbert's other small gems (Guest Wife, Skylark ) and she is always a delight to watch. Highly recommended.
