Storyline
The Bride Goes Wild, McGrath publishes books for children and Uncle Bump is one of the best sellers. Unfortunately, Greg, who is Uncle Bump, tends to drink too much and has not started his next book. Martha won a contest to illustrate the book and the first thing that happens is that Greg gets her soused. To keep her there to illustrate, John gets a juvenile delinquent named Danny to play his son and show how much pressure he is under. The ploy works at first, but Greg’s heart was broken by Tillie, and Martha may be the girl who makes him forget all about her.
Such a Fun Movie!
The Bride Goes Wild, A famous children’s’ story writer named Uncle Bumps (Van Johnson) needs someone to illustrate his latest book. A contest is held, and an artist is chosen, Miss Martha Terryton (June Allyson). Martha is an uptight, prudish woman with little tolerance for wasting time. Uncle Bumps is really Greg Rawlings, a young playboy with no work ethic and a penchant for young women. He attempts to work his magic on Martha, and after hard work and trickery, including telling her that he has a son (Butch Jenkins), it begins to work. That’s when his married girlfriend (Arlene Dahl) comes into the picture and messes everything up.
This movie has the same sentiment that another Johnson and Allyson film does: Too Young to Kiss. There is the same love-hate relationship between the two with the obvious ending, but plenty of fun along the way. The two had a strong chemistry, which is why they made so many films together.
Another wonderful addition to this film is Jenkins, the same kid from The Human Comedy. He’s a little older here, and such a lovable little boy, though he isn’t traditionally cute, but he’s lots of fun to watch.
