If You Could Only Cook is a 1935 Screwball Comedy film directed by William A. Seiter, starring Jean Arthur and Herbert Marshall.Jim Buchanan (Marshall) is a soon-to-be married millionaire car designer who chances upon out-of-work Joan Hawthorne (Arthur). Thinking Jim is struggling too, she points to an ad in the paper for a placement; a cook and a butler are wanted, and she suggests that they pretend to be a married couple to get the job. Without giving up his identity, Jim agrees with the plan, hoping to combat his ennui and the lack of appreciation from both his job and his stern socialite fianceé Eveyn (Frieda Inescort).Posing as "Mr. and Mrs. Burns", they land the job, and wind up working for the gangster Mike Rossini (Leo Carrillo). However, Jim's nightly outings to his home and office leave Rossini's fixer Flash (Lionel Stander) suspicious, and they end up thinking he's a talented thief.Joan, on the other hand, believes Jim is a talented designer (he shows her his drawings) and tries to sell his designs. She gets arrested and finds out that Jim is actually the millionaire James Buchanan. Saddened and disappointed at the deceit, she decides to go back home. However, Rossini and Flash are ready to save the day and bring the couple together – whether they like it or not. | |
