Lovely black and white chick flick. I am working my way through old screwball romantic comedies, and this was recommended as one of the best. It's about a couple that decides to divorce, only to discover that they love each other anyway. In its day it was very racy, full of double entendre and sexual innuendo. The chemistry between Grant and Dunn is a delight, and very funny. The poor dears can't keep their hands off of one another. But in 2008 it comes across as cute and quaint, rather than tittilating. Don't look for any deep messages about love or life here, as in "An Affair to Remember." This is pure silly fun. It might be a good movie to help you seduce your wife (with a little help from Cary Grant). Might be good to help you seduce your husband too girls, if you can keep him awake through the whole thing. Start making your move (If you are a woman, unbutton your blouse, or if you are a man, nibble on her ear) when you see the motorcycle cops.Read full review

Grant and Dunne are just the best together. Think they did four movies together. Both are masters at being subtly funny. This is a gem. Adult funny, not stupid funny.

This is a great early Cary Grant movie....the screwball types that he did so well. You know all along that they still love one another and I think Mr. Smith(dog) gave them an excuse to be together once in a while since they had joint custody. How could you think Irene Dunne would fall for hayseed Ralph Bellamy....over Cary? Half way through their divorce he knows he wants Irene back. He counters with an engagement to an aristocratic woman. Each does the best to spoil the other's plans....so funny! This was definitely a sexy and sophisticated battle of wits and I think one of the funniest screwball comedies ever made.
Have always loved this old movie. Thank you for the listing.
