SYNOPSIS:Astronomer Bill Whitley is so absorbed by his discovery of a comet that he scarcely notices the heavenly body close at hand, the one that belongs to his gorgeous wife Vicky. When an astrologer tells Vicky she’ll meet her dream man in two weeks, the neglected wife greets the news with eager anticipation. Bill scoffs – until a handsome air raid warden (James Craig) shows about just before midnight on day 14!
After proving themselves a powerful dramatic team in the thriller Crossroads, William Powell and Hedy Lamarr reunite for a sparkling romantic comedy spiced with slapstick that includes Powell’s wobble-legged ballet when teetotaler Whitley tries vodka…by the case.

  | Robert S. | A good, not great, film and a film that most guys will find too unbelievable. William Powell forgets Hedy Lamarr exists? He takes her for granted? No no no no... Bette Davis maybe, and she'll gun him down on the front lawn. Myrna Loy? Perhaps, but she'd probably teach Asta to bite AND HARD.
But be too consumed by The Office to forget Hedy Lamarr?!! C'mon.
I'll worry about Martians landing in New Jersey, sure, but forget Hedy? That would be REAL science-fiction. |
