PremiseIn order to earn a large inheritance, an American woman travels to Britain to prevent her ex-husband having any more children. Cast
Critical receptionTV Guide described the film as "a time-zone comedy, with Winters leading a British cast to give the film US appeal...None of it is terribly interesting" ;[4] whereas The New York Times wrote, "BELIEVE it or not, the running time of a stork determines the heir or heiress to $2,000,000 in Cash on Delivery, a bright, British farce that was fun on delivery at the Little Carnegie yesterday...Shelley Winters, as Myrtle, is in one of those made-to-order roles. John Gregson, as Tony, and Peggy Cummins, as Dorothy, are fine. And Mona Washbourne makes a delightfully tart nurse. Deliver yourself to the Little Carnegie. You'll have a good time."[5]References1. ^{{cite web | url=http://www.afi.com/members/catalog/DetailView.aspx?s=&Movie=51780| title=Cash on Delivery: Detail View | publisher=American Film Institute | accessdate= 2 June 2014}} 2. ^Vincent Porter, 'The Robert Clark Account', Historical Journal of Film, Radio and Television, Vol 20 No 4, 2000 p 504 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://explore.bfi.org.uk/4ce2b77a0d014|title=To Dorothy, A Son (1954)|work=BFI}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.tvguide.com/movies/cash-on-delivery/review/110473/|title=Cash On Delivery|work=TVGuide.com}} 5. ^https://www.nytimes.com/movie/review?res=9C0CE0DD1F3FE03BBC4953DFBF66838D649EDE External links
