Jerome Kern Tops "Show Boat" and "Roberta"
Jim "Lucky" Moore, an insurance salesman, comes up with a novel policy for his friend, Steve: a 'love insurance policy', that will pay out $1-million if Steve does not marry his fiancée, Cynthia. The upcoming marriage is jeopardized by Steve's ex-girlfriend, Mickey, and Cynthia's disapproving Aunt Kitty. The policy is underwritten by a nightclub owner, Roscoe, who sends two enforcers - Abbott and Costello - to ensure that the wedding occurs as planned.

I enjoyed this a lot, but I wonder if it could be a stronger romcom if the Abbott & Costello bits weren’t shoe-horned in. The Jerome Kern songs aren’t the most memorable.
Abbott and Costello's debut movie together; which was ruined by all the bits without them. Take them out completely and it's a three, at best; It's fucking terrible However, it does feature a version of the 'Who's on first?' routine.
