Every Girl Should Be Married Becomes Harried **
2 July 2008
Warning: Spoilers
Light comical farce with Betsy Drake desperate to wed and finds Cary Grant, a pediatrician, her perfect mate.

The picture has become faded with the passage of time since Women's Lib would never go for this today in 2008, 60 years after this film was made.

Grant shows what a wonderful actor he was by moving freely from drama to comedy.

Franchot Tone appears as a possible love interest and rival to Grant.

This is definitely Drake's film as she really gets into a woman desperate for marriage. Diana Lynn appears as her comic foil and is only moderately successful here.

The film tends to falter as it goes on and suddenly at the end, long time beau played Eddie Albert suddenly appears only to find that the Drake character has come a long way. Problem is that the film does not.
