Classic
I love this movie it's in the same spirit of the William Power & Myrna Loy, Rock Hudson & Doris Day romantic comedy routine ... a lot of fun .... and the best part is you really can truly "train" a man this way!

A Hudson-Day Film for the Teen Set
IF A MAN ANSWERS feels like a junior version of a Rock Hudson-Doris Day film. However, Sandra Dee and Bobby Darin are so charming together, the story is fun and frothy. Overall, it is a nice, charming movie though at times a bit risqué for the times.

If A Man Answers That Phone...You Better Hang Up
The year was 1962, Sandra Dee and Bobby Darin had almost been married a year. And they were madly in love and expecting their first child Dodd. That year Universal decided to cast them together once again, in a fun little comedy called If A Man Answers.Cantel Stacy (Sandra Dee), is a beautiful young lady who loves to play the field and has a lot of men around her little manicured fingers. Well one night daddy tells her that she needs to stop pussyfooting around and get married. Well she finds herself engaged to 3 men the next day, and starts bawling. They later get the problem solved after they move. The same day that they move to New York, Chantel is walking in front of a department store when Eugene Wilright (Bobby Darin) sees her and gives her his card about a modeling agency and asks her if she'd like to do some modelling. She says no and storms off. But the next day she shows up, at first Eugene is not to anxious about her doing any work with him but when after she takes off her coat he changes his mind. During the middle of the shoot Chantel's overly strict father walks in and punches Eugene in the nose and drags Chantel out of there. Shortly after Eugene and Chantel get married everything is peaches in cream for a while, until Chantel's best friend from high school portrayed by Stefanie Powers comes to visit for a while. That's when Chantel's french momma, tells her the way to keep your hubby in line with a certain dog training manual. Well Chantel takes the advice and uses it and it works well. But after Eugene finds out he gets even madder, and Chantel's momma makes up a lover for Chantel to get Eugene back. But that annoys Eugene even more, than the lover actually shows up in the form of Ceasar Romero, at first Chantel is very worried but later finds out that Ceasar Romero is Eugen's father and they are just playing a game with her. Well the movie ends well, with a passionate embrace between Eugene and Chantel.This is a great comedy classic I highly suggest for the whole family.

"A man is a man until he marries, then he becomes a husband!"
Sandra Dee and Bobby Darin play out an entertaining 'Junior Miss' variation of "Pillow Talk" in the sparkling romantic comedy IF A MAN ANSWERS (directed by Henry Levin, based on a novel by Winifred Wolfe).Sandra Dee plays Chantal Stacy, a half-American, half-French and all-New York glamour girl, who stumbles across the path of photographer Eugene Wright (played by Bobby Darin). The sparks fly and they're soon married, though Eugene still clings to his comfortable bachelor lifestyle. Chantal's mother (Micheline Presle) supplies her with the key to the perfect marriage...a book on how to train your dog! The same principles apply to husbands, apparently. Pretty soon, Chantal has Eugene precision-trained, until the situation dissolves into comedic chaos when he discovers the deception...and turns the tables on Chantal!IF A MAN ANSWERS is a delightful screen outing for Dee and Darin, and while the movie as a whole seems a direct steal from "Pillow Talk", it's a very fun ride. It's great seeing Micheline Presle here, too. The movie also features John Lund, Cesar Romero and Stefanie Powers.The DVD transfer is sharp and bright for the most part, tightly-letterboxed in 2.00:1 anamorphic widescreen. The trailer is also included. (Single-sided, single-layer disc).
