San Diego, I Love You is a 1944 American comedy film directed by Reginald Le Borg and starring Jon Hall, Louise Allbritton and Edward Everett Horton.
Critic Bosley Crowther of the New York Times rebukes Universal Pictures for issuing a "jerry-built latter-day farce," resorting to "screw-ball clichés" and “mirthless slapstick resulting in a "painful attempt to be funny."
[9] Chapman reserves high praise for the cast performances, in particular Louise Allbritton, achieving “her top comedian effort to date” and exhibiting “a fine sense of comic timing” that served her well in screwball comedy.
[10] The studio resources provided for San Diego, I Love You appeared to be promising for LeBorg’s prospects as a director, with an “ambitious script” and a budget that reached the threshold for a high production feature.
[11] A top-ranked screen star might added luster to the film’s prestige and earned higher box office returns - LeBorg had expressed an interest in procuring Cary Grant for the role of John Thompson Caldwell IV.
