Plots(1)
Upon losing his lover, Herbert (Jerry Lewis) gives up women for good and seeks a fresh start by taking a maintenance position at what appears to be an ordinary Los Angeles boarding house. To Herbert’s surprise, however, the building caters specifically to single women. He immediately resolves to quit, but landlady Miss Wellenmellon (Helen Traubel) and sweet tenant Fay (Pat Stanley) talk him into keeping the job. In no time at all, Herbert is mired in one comic disaster after another. (Umbrella Entertainment)

Incredibly fun and crazy, I didn't even believe some of those ideas. If Jerry Lewis didn't exaggerate so much, it would be even better. I guess I would prefer that Keaton-like calmness rather than this funny face-making. But after a while, it will grab you and you will laugh at these madnesses because there is no other way.
