Directed by Frank Tashlin.
Dean Martin aspires to sell a comic book concept to a publisher—his chief resource being his comic-book-addled roommate Jerry Lewis. Love interests arrive in the form of two Greenwich Village beauties who collaborate on painting and modeling comic-book characters. The offbeat comedy comes punctuated by costume designer Edith Head’s pleasingly bright and deceptively simple designs that epitomize industrious, upbeat youth.
