Review of Honeymoon

Honeymoon (1947)
5/10
Getting Shirley married
4 August 2019
Honeymoon is what Shirley Temple and Guy Madison want to have. He's a GI stationed at the Canal Zone and she's his intended bride and both are coming to Mexico City to get married. But they miss each other and for 72 hours they become the top priority of American consul Franchot Tone's existence. Not only that they interfere with Tone's own love life, his relationship to Lina Romay.

Honeymoon is a slight and amusing comedy done on a shoestring by RKO. Had they invested in some color and some location shooting over in Mexico City this might have been really something to see. Watching Shirley and Franchot purportedly in the hanging gardens of Xochimilco might have been nice to see for real.

Fans of all concerned should like this one.
