"White Tie and Tails" is a comedy/romance from Universal Studios. It is an unsual film for Dan Duryea, as often he played real skunks. Here, he's a likable guy...to a point!
When the story begins, the Latimer family is leaving for a vacation. They leave the house in the care of their butler, Charles (Duryea). However, instead of just relaxing, Charles pretends to be a rich man himself and begins to integrate into society. However, when he meets the Bradford family, he ends up being pulled into a serious problem...and he's just written a check for over $100,000...without any hope of actually having the funds to cover it! What's next? See the film.
While I liked the movie, I must admit that the ending is VERY farfetched and hard to believe. Still, it is a cute little time-passer and Duryea is quite nice in the lead.
