4/10
Not as daffy as the daffodils would have it.

While Juliet Mills at the beginning of her career is certainly lovely, there are several issues concerning her soft whispering voice that make her dialog difficult to hear. She plays aint nurse at a sanitarium where patients go to recover from tuberculoses and ends up in a romance with one. The plot is slight and unremarkable, and in fact had recently right before this been done as one of the first 'Carry On" movies.

Donald Houston, Donald Houston and Kenneth Williams are the leading men in this romp, and yet there's little romping going on. Much of the film has patients lying around in bed being visited by friends and family, and when the plot gets going, I really didn't find anything special about it. It's also something that could have been wrapped up in 70 minutes, And when I saw the Anglo Amalicated logo, I hoped it would be as brief as their Edgar Wallace mysteries. Unfortunately not. After a while, I just began singing ring around the rosy, hoping it would all be over.
