Product Information
Although Alfred Hitchcock had some lighter moments in early English productions such as RICH AND STRANGE, MR. AND MRS. SMITH was Hitchcock's only American comedy and may have come about through Hitchcock's friendship with star Carole Lombard. The film opens with Lombard and Robert Montgomery as a happily married though bickering couple. In one spat Lombard challenges Montgomery with the age-old question, "If you had it to do it all over again, would you marry me?" To which Montgomery replies with an off-handed "No!" Unfortunately for Montgomery, he is given a chance to stand by his hasty words when the couple learns that due to a legal technicality, their marriage isn't valid. Thrown out of the house by Lombard, Montgomery must find someway to prove his love is indeed sincere--but not before Lombard gets a chance to make him suffer a little. Hitchcock shows an unusual charm for the genre, making a wildly enjoyable and thoroughly appealing romantic comedy.Product Identifiers
