AwardsBest Screenplay Written Directly For The Screen 1947 - Sidney Sheldon
Additional InformationJudge Myrna Loy decides that the best way to curb the excesses of playboyish art teacher Cary Grant is to force him to do what he does best--romance a willing young lady. In this instance, the girl is Loy's own sister, played by a blossoming Shirley Temple. Aware that Temple has a serious crush on Grant, Loy orders him to date the teen-aged Temple until the girl gets him out of her system; he is also ordered to keep his hands to himself lest he wind up in the pokey. Grant finds the irrepressible Temple rather wearisome, but he throws himself into his sentence full-force, donning teenaged clothes, speaking in nonsense slang ("Voodoo! Who Do? You Do!" etc.) and participating in the athletic events at a high school picnic. Grant eventually divests himself of Temple by arranging for her to fall for a boy her own age; meanwhile, Loy realizes what we've realized all along--that it is she who is truly smitten by Grant. Adding to the frothy fun of BACHELOR AND THE BOBBY-SOXER are the supporting performances of Ray Collins as a sagacious psychologist and Rudy Vallee as a stuffy district attorney. The film's screenplay won an Academy Award for Sidney Sheldon, who went on to create I Dream of Jeannie and to matriculate into a best-selling novelist.

Light postwar comedy, with Cary Grant the object of a high school crush.
Decent copy of a romcom triangle, with two of Hollywood's best light commedians, Cary Grant and Myrna Loy. The tricky subject of the film is a high school girl's (a teenage Shirley Temple) crush on a man in his early 40's, so this may not be suitable for family viewing. As well as the usual farcical elements, this comedy is interesting for keying into the behaviour and slang of the postwar bobby sox teenagers, and the bewilderment this causes to their Victorian-born grandparents. Another highlight is that Cary does even more physical comedy than in his prewar work with Irene Dunne and Katherine Hepburn. On the negative side, the chemistry (but not the wit) between Cary and Myrna is weak, and this detracts from the inevitable resolution of the film. So, nowhere near a classic, but solid entertainment, if you can stomach the subject matter.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
