There's Always Tomorrow tackles the subject of infidelity from a different angle: from the perspective of children who are old enough to know what's going on. Fred MacMurray and Joan Bennet have three children who still live at home. The two oldest, William Reynolds and Gigi Perreau, are teenagers and can understand the symptoms when Fred starts taking interest in another woman. Do they confront their father, tell their mother, or keep silent? If those questions interest you, you'll probably enjoy this movie.
Fred, ignored at home and frustrated by the everyday rut, meets up with an old flame Barbara Stanwyck by chance. They spend a plutonic weekend together, and while it's all innocent at first, Fred's kids get the wrong idea. It's a thoughtful story and an interesting script, and it's fun to see Barbara and Fred together on the screen again. Since this movie was made in the 1950s, though, you can probably guess there's a bit of a bias in favor of the family unit, rather than running away and finding yourself" as is the theme in many modern movies.
