Movie Info

After he's caught kissing one of his co-eds, college professor David Wilson (Tony Curtis) is given marching orders by his livid wife, Ann (Janet Leigh). In order to avoid divorce, David concocts an elaborate alibi with his TV writer buddy (Dean Martin) : he claims to have been on an undercover mission for the FBI and that the kiss was crucial to his mission. With the help of a few props, Ann believes her husband's tall tale completely. And that's when his problems start.

Critic Reviews for Who Was That Lady?

All Critics (2) | Rotten (2)

Many a promising comedy begins with a good basic idea but squanders itself in frenzied overexertion.

Clyde Gilmour
Maclean's Magazine
It stretches more comedy than one could expect from such thin material, and passes as a so-so comedy vehicle for the appealing stars.

Audience Reviews for Who Was That Lady?

Jan 31, 2012

Thin comedy put over by the stars. Tony comes off best as a basically good guy caught up in a situation that gets out of hand but Janet's character comes across as a borderline idiot and Dino is a pretty much a sexist slime. A space filler for all three, this was between Some Like it Hot and Spartacus for Tony, Rio Bravo and Bells are Ringing for Dean and Janet's next two films were Psycho followed by The Manchurian Candidate so this was easily left behind by all.
