When William Gridley arrives from the US in London, he rents part of Carly Hardwicke's house from her and promptly begins to fall in love. Gridley doesn't know that many people think she killed her husband but his boss, the American ambassador, knows and doesn't take this lapse of judgement lightly. Since Carly is also American, Gridley saves his job by introducing her to the ambassador, who is promptly smitten and promises to help her. So when a Scotland Yard detective arrives, wanting to get to the truth one way or another, they say they'll help him. And then the comedic complications really begin.
如何评价《风流女房东》
首先声明，我是真的挺喜欢这部《风流女房东》小片的，n刷过后我也看了一些导演和演员的相关采访，对这个电影也有了一些更深的感受和想说的话。这其实是于适自己在路演的时候对电影的形容，我觉得还挺准确的：他说这部电影就像一瓶冰镇过的橘子姜味汽水，一开始喝下去凉爽愉悦，但最后回味起来又会有点辛辣苦涩，我现在可以说就处在这个回味的阶段。
优酷网友热评：慕名去看，画面很精致，演技也在线，台词意味深长，编剧非常用力，最终呈现出来的是一支华丽的舞蹈。
来自网易云网友的评价：导演以自身的传统美学功底，对电影的写实艺术特性也有精深的理解和把握，他特别擅以生动的细节描绘人物的内心活动，并调动电影的各种艺术元素为塑造人物服务。
