This is a B movie at best. I watched it on instant NF because it had Marilyn Monroe in it. She wasn't a star at this point in her career, she was just landing small parts with 20th century fox. She only has about 12 lines in the entire movie and appears in only 3 scenes.
There are five main actors in this movie, two of whom are worth mentioning. 1. Claudette Colbert, who was the star of "It Happened One Night" gives the only noteworthy performance. 2. Robert Wagener- plays a young father in this movie. Robert went on to have a successful career and is still alive today. He was married to Natalie Wood two times during his life, and they were married at the time of her passing (drowning accident). I give this movie 1.5 stars.
The script is based on a middle aged couple who wants to get a divorce after 20 years of marriage- due to the husbands gambling problem. As they are trying to patch things up, the wife's ex-boyfriend rolls into town, and he is now a millionaire, which complicated things.
Don't wast your time with this one unless you just want to see MM for a couple of minutes.
