Shirley Temple is Corliss Archer, the perpetually fifteen-year-old girl whose imagination and stubbornness always gets her into trouble. Here, through a series of events, she's covering up for her secret sister-in-law, pretending to be expecting and married to boy-next-door Jerome Courtland. It's typical idiot plotting, with Walter Abel as Miss Temple's apoplectic father, Katherine Alexander as her long-suffering mother, and Robert Benchley, who pops into view to keep things bubbling for another few minutes.

I thought it was pretty racy for a Production Code movie, but it's based on a stage play that had been produced on Broadway a couple of years earlier. Corliss had been created by F. High Herbert, who turned it into quite a franchise opportunity, with movies, stage shows, the long-running radio show, a television series, and even a comic book; that ran only three issues. Miss Temple would reappear as Corliss in a second movie four years later. With Porter Hall, Darryl Hickman, Carlyle Blackwell Jr, and Daisy the Dog on loan from Blondie.

. I saw this movie one time, on TV. I was 12. That would have been around 1960. And I've never forgotten it. My mother and myself, and my younger sister, laughed through the whole thing til our sides hurt. It struck so close to home for all three of us. I've been looking for the thing to come out on tape all my adult life. But it doesn't matter when it comes out. As long as it does one day, I won't have outgrown it. .

Enjoyed this film immensely.

Good acting all round.

I wish it would come round on english telly.

Made me feel very happy.

I was nine years old when I saw Kiss and Tell. I went to the morning movie and stayed until the last showing at 9:00 pm. I loved it so much that I didn't want to leave and kept saying,' wait until this part, then I'll leave.' Shirley Temple was a beautiful teenager. I remember that she had a kissing booth to help raise money for the war effort. The movie shows great community spirit in support of the soldiers that had gone off to battle. It was fun to see her go from a child to a teenager that I could identify with. Wanted to grow up and be like Shirley Temple. Would recommend this movie for family viewing! The other actors and actresses played wonderful supporting cast. Would love to see this movie out on a DVD!

I didn't have high expectations for this film. I feared Shirley Temple as a teenager would be awkward. However, this movie was surprisingly entertaining! It was well paced, with a strong supporting cast. The plot twists were quite funny. Shirley plays Corliss Archer; She agrees to keep her brother's secret marriage underwraps, and winds up getting herself in a lot of trouble.
