Question
Hi.  I am looking for the title of a movie from the 50s.  It was about a newlywed couple and the new wife's mother shared her secret for a long and happy marriage.  It was a little book about How to Train Your New Puppy!  She started using the simple tips in the book and her husband couldn't have been happier.  It was a darling movie and pointed out how little it takes to make a man happy :-)  Would love to see it again.

Answer
Hi Barbara,

I'm pretty sure the movie you're thinking of is the 1962 Universal picture, "If A Man Answers" starring Sandra Dee and Bobby Darin, with John Lund, Stephanie Powers and Cesar Romero.

You can find the full synopsis at:     http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/If_a_Man_Answers

And it's available on DVD  at:  www,amazon.com
