Starring: Carey Grant, Irene Dunne, and Ralph Bellamy
The comedic timing of the handsome Grant and beautiful Dunne are a nice flow to this rousing plot. This film is full of great times and the notion that you never forget your first love. As the couple try to break up each others new relationships, this movie instantly develops into a comedic classic.
Carey Grant and Irene Dunne do an outstanding job as a couple trying to settle with the terms of their divorce that will become final in 90 days.
Dunne’s character is alone without an escort while her aunt lives with her during the finalization of her divorce. After her aunt meets the wild-west character played by Ralph Bellamy, she jumps at the chance of forgetting about Jerry (Grant). Their relationship escalates rather quickly as an engagement is introduced as soon as the divorce between Grant and Dunne is finalized.
After Jerry sees his wife and her new escort together at a club, he does his best to help Dunne see that she doesn’t belong with this "Oklahoma man". He tries to portray the idea that being away from the New York shops and on the Oklahoma terrain will be a big change for Dunne.
After a comedic “scandal”, Bellamy breaks it off with Dunne who was okay with it, because she was going to break it off with him. Three months later, Grant is said to be engaged, and Dunne doesn’t approve of that since she is still in love with him. So she tries to let him know that he doesn’t belong with this new woman.
Both Dunne and Grant hide their true feelings to each other. Dunne is most charming as her mischievous schemes are explored. Grant shows that being in love is about trust, faith, and the enjoyment of each others company.
Recommendation: See it!
