Synopsis

Adam Pontipee, obviously accustomed to live in big spaces, goes down to the village with the idea well settled to take woman. He meets Milly. They are liked mutually. They marry and leave immediately the village to join the house of Adam lost in the mountains.

In way, Adam, incidentally, learns in Molly that his/her six brothers (unmarried - that goes from oneself - and men of wood!) also divide the house.

Molly, once returned of its stupor, is given for task to learn the good mannerss with the brothers from Adam. After the theory, the practice: a village festival will make it possible the phratry to be distinguished vis-a-vis the young person-men from the village and the young person-girls to be married.

It is the occasion, for each one of them, to fall in love. And how to convince these young ladies to live with them at the fine bottoms of wood, if not to remove them.

The beginning of the helping winter, a snowslide isolate the kidnappers and their preys, soon agreeing.

On arrival of spring, Adam will have a baby and the six brothers will marry during a common ceremony.

Comments

In spite of a scenario less subtle than Let us sing under the rain realized by Stanley Donen two years before, in spite of a not very important budget for this type of films (the film is entirely carried out in studio), the film carries adhesion for choreography époustouflante of Michael Kidd. Certain scenes became scenes of anthology, as for example the picnic which finishes in brawl on a endiablé rate/rhythm.

Contrary to much by musical films, this one was not preceded by a musical comedy with success.

On the other hand, thereafter, various adaptations to the scene were carried out.

The French singer Lio interpreted Molly on a Parisian scene.
