Divorce (1945)
7/10
divorce in the 1940's
25 January 2022
This story is about a woman who has been married many times. Kay francis herself had already been married and divorced three times by 1945, so it was pretty good casting. There would still be a stigma attached to divorce in 1945, but the war was ending, the service folks were coming home, so there were probably other things to think about. Co-star bruce cabot was fay wray's love interest in king kong (how did king kong not get any oscars??) in this film, dianne returns to her childhood home town, and seems to spark with the (married) bob phillips. Bob's wife isn't so concerned, but her friends are! Until bob and dianne start spending so much time together in business deals. Then there's a showdown between the two. Co-stars helen mack. It's pretty good, for a monogram pictures film. Directed by bill nigh. He had done five of the mister wong detective films in the 1930s. He started as an actor in the early days of the silent films, started directing pretty quickly. Story by sidney sutherland.
