Watch My Dear Secretary (1948) Official Trailer
He chased her . . . 'til she caught him!
6.1 / 10 IMDb November 5, 1948 1h 34m
A budding young writer thinks it's her lucky day when she is chosen to be the new secretary for Owen Waterbury, famous novelist. She is soon disppointed, however, when he turns out to be an erratic, immature playboy. Opposites attract, of course, but not without sub-plots that touch on competitiveness within marriage and responsibility.
