Barbara Mullen is the title character, brought up in a stereotypically thrifty Scottish householder by her skinflint father, who takes a seriously dim view of modern day profligacies like cinema.... When he dies, he leaves his entire £290-odd fortune to the young woman who decides to blow the whole lot on travels to the continent. Armed with her cash, and her dog - she sets off, woefully underprepared for what awaits her. Fortunately, she meets "Stanley Smith" (Michael Redgrave), a travelling washing machine salesman who tries to help her navigate the myriad of foreign customs to which she is unaccustomed. Both are on great form with the gently using script nd scenarios; she even has to fight off the attentions of a dapper, but broke, Count (Albert Lieven) before the inevitable conclusion. Mischa Spoliansky provides a joyful accompaniment, incorporating many themes from the nations she visits - the "Blue Danube" etc. which all adds to this charming romantic comedy. Keep an eye out for a lovely cameo from Katie Johnson, too.
