Let's Get Married is a 1960 British comedy drama film directed by Peter Graham Scott and starring Anthony Newley, Anne Aubrey and Hermione Baddeley.[1] The film features Newley singing the song "Do You Mind", which reached #1 in the British Hit Singles chart the same year.[2]
Dickie Bird is a medical student who thrown out of his university who ends up working in a laundry and rebuilds his confidence with a relationship with a fashion model.
The film was shot at MGM British Studios in Elstree with sets designed by the art director Ken Adam.
The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "After an amusing hospital scene, what might have been a charming, romantic little fable declines into slapstick and weak jokes. Some of the fooling displays imagination, but too often it is just a case of characters grimacing, falling, spraying each other with water – not to mention all manner of tasteless variations on the hardly uproarious theme of unmarried motherhood. Anthony Newley, giving a broader performance than usual, is given songs to sing, regardless of their relevance to the story. Lionel Jeffries provides yet another of his impressive caricatures. Like Newley, he awaits better material."[3]
