The Man from Toronto
A joyously exciting romance, with a "catch" to it!
Overview
According to the terms of a will two strangers must marry. Leila (Jessie Matthews) is an English widow, and Fergus (Ian Hunter) is a Canadian bachelor. Both are bequeathed a fortune, but there is a condition to receive it; the two must marry within a year. To aid matters, Leila disguises herself as Fergus' maid, and the two begin to fall in love. However, when Fergus discovers the truth, he is less than pleased by the deception.

One of the earliest adorable romantic comedies with UK's Jessie Matthews. Who was already bubbly, but had yet to stumble across the musical formula which would produce her best films like Evergreen (1934), First a Girl (1935), It's Love Again (1936) and Sailing Along (1938). Still very enjoyable in all it's predictability thanks to this sweet gal.
