Review :
Slight Comedy
A sometimes amusing but ultimately not very essential comedy about Peter, a songwriter, who is left with an alligator. He meets Moira (the fiery red haired Jeannie Carson), who works at a zoo but is engaged to marry Vanessa (platinum blonde Marilyn Monroe like Diana Dors). Basically, Peter takes care of Daisy, who sometimes does not even look real. You get the very obvious reactions to the alligator, but this is a pretty bland comedy. It could have benefited from an increase in slapstick and more face time with Donald Sinden (who plays Peter) and Jeannie Carson. Not horrible, not unwatchable but not as good as many British comedies of the 50's. For lovers of the main actors only, otherwise you can skip it.
