Description

In WERE NOT MARRIED, five couples find out that they are not legally married and react in all sorts of different ways (most are pretty overjoyed) in this anthology of comic vignettes. Marilyn Monroe plays a beauty queen whose husband, stuck at home with the baby, sees this turn of events as perfect leverage; Fred Allen and Ginger Rogers are co-hosts of a radio show, whose marriage is purely for ratings; Zsa Zsa Gabor is a ruthless gold-digger trying to get her millionare husbands money; Eve Arden and Paul Douglas are bored but contented ex-New Yorkers; and Eddie Bracken is a soldier who goes AWOL to remarry pregnant Mitzi Gaynor so his kid wont grow up a you know what. Lee Marvin makes a brief appearance as Brackens army buddy. Victor Moore is the dottering old judge who mistakenly married the couples without authorisation. The various stories all have a happy ending of one sort or another, and the sanctity of marriage survives intact, despite the good-natured ribbing it receives at the hands of director Edmund Goulding (GRAND HOTEL) and producer-writer Nunnally Johnson.
