Grant and Irene Dunne star in the definitive madcap comedy of
re-marriage. Jerry Warriner (Cary Grant) returns from his two-week
Florida vacation to find his socialite wife Lucy (Irene Dunne)
has also been away from home. When she saunters in, flanked by
the handsome Armand (Alexander D'Arcy), with the unlikely excuse
they attended a high school prom, Jerry looks the fool in front
of their society pals. But after discovering that the oranges
Jerry's brought from Florida are stamped California, Lucy realizes
her husband's been up to his own games. Agreeing to disagree,
they file for divorce and begin new romances. But before their
divorce decree is final, these mixed-up love birds will be back
in each others arms. Based on the 1922 play by Arthur Richman.
