Trama |
Per strappare alla concorrenza il lancio del misterioso “vip”, la pubblicitaria Carol Templeton cerca di circuirne l'inventore ma lo confonde con Jerry Webster, l'intraprendente direttore dell'agenzia rivale, pronto a sfruttare la situazione per conquistare le sue grazie.
The story concerns life in a New York advertising agency. Rock Hudson stars as Jerry Webster, a Madison Avenue ad executive who has achieved success not through hard work or intelligence but by wining and dining his clients, even setting them up on dates with attractive girls.
Jerry's equal and sworn enemy at a rival agency is Carol Templeton (Doris Day). Although she has never met him, Carol is disgusted by Jerry's unethical antics and reports him to the Ad Council. Jerry avoids trouble with his usual aplomb, sending a comely chorus girl, Rebel Davis (Edie Adams), to seduce the council members.
Jerry then promises Rebel a spot in commercials, so he shoots commercials featuring her for VIP, a non-existent product. The commercials accidentally are broadcast on TV, thanks to perplexed company president Pete Ramsey (Tony Randall). Jerry needs to come up with a product quickly. He bribes the chemist Dr. Linus Tyler (Jack Kruschen) come up with VIP that could be marketed. Jerry pretends to be the inventor to Carol, while she is attempting to steal the account away from Jerry by wine and dine, golfing and frolicing at the beach him.
Carol learns the truth. Appalled, she once more reports him to the Advertising Council, this time for advertising a nonexistent product. Jerry, however, arrives at the hearing with VIP, a mint-flavored candy he offers it to everyone including Carol.
VIP turns out to be an intoxicating candy, having the same effect as three triple martinis. Its extreme effects lead to a one-night stand between Carol, who has a low tolerance for alcohol, and her bitter rival Jerry, complete with marriage license. Carol has the marriage annulled but Jerry convinces the Liquor Industry to give Carol a quarter of its advertising. Jerry leaves town to work in the company's California branch, only to be called back nine months later to remarry Carol in a hospital maternity ward, just before she gives birth to their child. |
