My Favorite Wife

MY FAVORITE WIFE (1940) - Nov. 3, 2006
A delightful and surprisingly funny romantic comedy about a man whose wife, missing and presumed dead after six years lost at sea, returns home the day he remarries another woman; wackiness ensues. Cary Grant was... well, do I even need to say it? He was perfect as the befuddled husband of two wives, and Irene Dunne was also really good as his first wife (they previously teamed up in the Awful Truth, and I think this was just as good if not better, though I seem to be in the minority on that one). ***1/2
