Good Neighbor Sam
Slam! Bam! Here comes Sam!...Caught in the Middle of a Two-Woman Jam!
Directed by David Swift
Produced by Columbia Pictures
A lighthearted 1960s comedy built on mistaken identity and romantic entanglement, where a good deed spirals into increasingly absurd complications.
To help his divorced neighbor claim a substantial inheritance, a family man poses as her husband. The ruse spills over into his career in advertising, and his recent promotion relies on his wholesome and moral appearance.
