About The Lady Takes a Sailor
Jennifer Smith heads a "Consumer Reports"-type company and her reputation for honesty is her greatest asset. While out boating one day she encounters a secret prototype submarine piloted by Bill Craig. Trying to explain her absence after her boat sinks becomes very difficult as Bill and his cohorts attempt to discredit her story.
Directed by Michael Curtiz, The Lady Takes a Sailor leans on a strong ensemble — Jane Wyman, Dennis Morgan, Eve Arden — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1949.
