Not So Dumb

Dulcy (Marion Davies) is engaged to Gordon (Elliott Nugent), an up-and-coming businessman with grandiose aspirations. In an effort to help him with his career, she invites his potential business partner, jeweler Mr. Forbes (William Holden), to their home, along with his daughter and girlfriend. Despite her best intentions, Dulcy is not the most eloquent of hostesses and is quickly overwhelmed by the evening's events, making one blunder after another, putting Gordon's career at risk.
