A great romantic comedy!

It's nice when romance and everything about it has a twist of humour too!That's exactly what the scriptwriter to this 1974 made-for-TV movie did and boy,did he do it well! Karen Valentine plays a small town girl who is hired by a rich playboy's friends as his "birthday present".Robert Long plays the role of the publishing tycoon,Michael Green,who has just turned 40 but refuses to admit it.His magazine boasts that it's for "the guy who has everything" but Greene find himself alone and drunk on the night of his 40th birthday.He feels alone and empty when in walks Sandy Benson in a bikini and a bow and his life is never the same again.Now if this was one of your run-of-the-mill romances and you're up at 11:00 in the night you'd think why bother?But what it is a wonderfully charming and witty comedy with 2 equally charming and witty actors who refuse to let you get bored!

Curiosidades
In this movie there is a disdainful reference to Ingrid Bergman as "that woman". This is a joke lost on the present generation, but in 1974 it would have made much more sense. This is a reference to the scandal when Bergman left her husband and daughter to live with Italian director Roberto Rossellini, and give birth to a child out of wedlock.

Erros de gravação
The film's conclusion is set in Kenosha, Wisconsin, but mountains are clearly seen in the distant background.

Citações
Michael Green: I have this phobia about getting to be 40. I don't know. When you're in your twenties, everybody says "boy genius!" And then when you're in your thirties, "Ah, yes! Young man on the way up!" You get to be forty... zip. Nothin'. No more adjectives. Just a man.
