Product Description: This wonderful romantic comedy has the legendary Cary Grant (North by Northwest, Charade) as a government attorney who can’t seem to shake his bad fortune. Living on a houseboat, widowed and left with three unruly kids, he hires Sophia Loren (Arabesque) as a governess. The magnetic Loren and the charming Grant become the screen’s most exciting team and make this Houseboat a cheeky, urbane comedy delight!

Directed by Shavelson (The Five Pennies).
