My Favorite Wife.
Nick (Cary Grant) has just gotten married to Bianca (Gail Patrick). This is his second marriage. His first marriage was to Ellen (Irene
Dunne). It is assumed that Ellen died in
a boating accident in Asia seven years prior.
Well, Ellen survived that boating accident, spending those years on a
deserted island. She arrives back in
America on the day of the marriage.
Well, Nick is in trouble as he’s now married to two women!!!
This is another enjoyable Cary Grant movie. I love how even though Bianca is supposed to
be the antagonist as everyone knows that Ellen is Nick’s true love; you start
to feel for her as the movie progresses.
Bianca initially is portrayed a somewhat uncaring individual who is
potentially more attracted to Nick’s upper middleclass lifestyle than anything
else. When Ellen shows up, Bianca is
totally unaware that she is Nick’s wife.
As Nick and Ellen try to sort things out between them, Bianca is left
wondering what has happening to her marriage after only a few short days. She does her best to save her marriage, which
makes you feel that there is more to her than what first was revealed.
