The Lady Says No
Genre: Comedy
The Lady Says No is a 1952 American comedy film directed by Frank Ross with sequences filmed at Fort Ord, Pebble Beach and Carmel, California.
David Niven plays a globe-trotting author and photographer on assignment from LIFE magazine to do a photo story on best-selling author of the title book, "The Lady Says 'No'," Joan Caulfield. Rather than finding a dour spinster, as he expects, she is a young, attractive blonde, who finds her published theories against love and men set on their head.
The unbidden thoughts and impulses even invade her subconscious, in a fascinating dream sequence. It is a battle of the sexes, and the Id and Ego, as the two clash. He tries to show her that her book is "all rot"; while she tries to prove her theories that love is just an autonomic function, which isn't really worth it.
They find that they all have a lot to learn, and forgive. It looks like sometimes the answer is "no", and sometimes "yes". (Wikipedia)
