Houseboat

Directed by Melville Shavelson

Release: 1958
Runtime: 110
Country: U.S.
Language: English
Director: Melville Shavelson

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! Co-starring Martha Hyer (Battle Hymn), Murray Hamilton (Jaws) and Harry Guardino (Madigan), this warmly entertaining Technicolor/VistaVision production was nominated for 2 Academy Awards for the year 1958: Best Original Screenplay (Melville Shavelson and Jack Rose) and Best Song (Almost in Your Arms by Jay Livingston and Ray Evans; sung by soul legend Sam Cooke). Directed by Shavelson (The Five Pennies).
