John Whittaker, un joven inglés, se enamora perdidamente de Larita, una sexy y glamurosa americana, con quien se casa impulsivamente. Aunque se las prometían felices, cuando la pareja regresa a Inglaterra para instalarse en casa de John, la madre de éste, la Sra. Whittaker, la toma instantáneamente con su joven nuera. Larita se esfuerza por encajar en la familia pero no consigue superar los obstáculos que encuentra en el día a día con su suegra. Larita no tardará en descubrir el juego de la Sra. Whittaker y sabe que deberá luchar con uñas y dientes para no perder a John. Las chispas saltarán a la mínima en una sagaz guerra de ingenio y las cosas no tardan en salirse de madre. La Sra. Whittaker manipulará todas las situaciones para hacer de menos a Larita mientras que ésta mantiene la calma y orquesta ingeniosos contraataques. Pero las tramas de la Sra. Whittaker empiezan a surtir efecto sobre John, y Larita siente que su amor se ve amenazado. En una gran apoteosis final, en la que se revelan los secretos del pasado de Larita, ésta decide escapar de ese asfixiante hogar... (DeAPlaneta)

You know those harmless comedies that you find primarily in the repertoire of Vinohrady Theatre or Na Jezerce Theatre, almost certainly starring Jirásková or Hrušinský? One of those plays that you would never go to alone, but when you take Mom, Granny, Dad and anybody else from the family to it, you can be sure that you will survive, your parents will be happy, Granny will be over the moon about how Jirásková is still enchanting and jumps about like a spring deer. Well this is exactly the same. So much so, that I’m just waiting for it to appear in the Vinohrady Theatre repertoire, starring Jirásková and guest-starring Hrušinský.

Great actors, a beautiful English period setting and that unmistakable British humour. It looks great, but it all struck me as a very unstable set-up that was about to fall apart at any moment. There were a lot of funny scenes, but there were some pretty boring passages alongside them. I have no complaints about the cast, they were all well chosen and, as I have a soft spot for period films, I enjoyed myself here. All in all, an average comedy that could have been more striking and definitely could have been made better.
