Suave bachelor globe-trotting photographer David Niven is assigned to shoot best-selling feminist author Joan Caulfield, who turns out to be virginal, cool, blonde and smart.
At his first ploy of getting her to remove more and more clothes, she ends the shoot by walking out. Each further advance on his part is met by more rebuffs, following which she allures him into yet more humiliation. Even her dreams show attraction competing with repulsion. Restless, she starts interfering in the relationships of his blue-collar friends as well. In the end, she has to grow up: the little girl who keeps saying no must become a woman and learn to say yes. —Wikipedia
