Granox Company presents ; screenplay by Peter Stone and Frank Tarloff ; produced by Robert Arthur ; directed by Ralph Nelson.

Cary Grant and Leslie Caron with Trevor Howard.

"Cary Grant (Indiscreet) stars in one of his funniest roles as a boozy beachcomber sitting out WWII in peace until the Allies recruit him to be a lookout on the South Pacific isle. During an enemy attack, he answers a distress call and discovers a beautiful French schoolmarm (Leslie Caron) and her seven girl students. And so begins a hilarious battle of the sexes between the messy American, the prim mademoiselle and seven mischievous little girls. Who will win is anybody's guess, but you can be sure that Father Goose delivers plenty of romantic fun and adventure along the way. The wonderful cast includes Trevor Howard (The Third Man). Directed by Ralph Nelson (Lilies Of The Field). Academy Award winner for Best Story and Screenplay written directly for the screen and nominated for two more Academy Awards for Best Editing and Best Sound."--Container.
