One of my favorite movies is Cary Grant and Irene Dunne My Favorite Wife. Great humor. Black and white film, 1940. A true classic.

Ellen Arden shows up 7 years after being presumed dead on a shipwreck, only to find her husband, Nick remarried to Bianca. How does Nick tell his new bride he is still married? And to mix things up, Nick finds out that Ellen has been on an island for those 7 years with one lone man, StevenBurkett.

They’ve produced a couple of remakes of this this film — one that never got out there was with Marilyn Monroe and Dean Martin. When Marilyn died, it wasn’t finished and got shelved. Finally, it got remade with Doris Day and James Garner and renamed, “Move Over Darling”.
