Description

Director Leo McCarey won an Oscar(r) and star Irene Dunne was nominated (one of her five Best Actress nominations) for THE AWFUL TRUTH, one of the most captivating screwball comedies ever made. A comic battlefield presided over by two superbly-matched sparring partners, THE AWFUL TRUTH also stars Cary Grant as the other half of a couple facing divorce and fighting over custody of their beloved dog, Mr. Smith. Somewhere before the final divorce decree, however, Jerry decides he wants Lucy back, only to learn that she's marrying a country bumpkin (hilariously played by Ralph Bellamy). Jerry counters with an engagement to the aristocratic Molly Lamont, sparking a sexy, sophisticated battle of wits that ranks among the wackiest comedies in screen history.

    I love this movie. It is funny and touching. I think every couple should watch this. They just don't make them the way they used to.

  • Very cute.

    Thank you, iTunes! Cary Grant and Irene Dunne are a hoot as a feuding, soon-to-be-divorced, glamorous New York couple, and Ralph Bellamy is funny as the wealthy mama's-boy Oklahoman that Irene Dunne talks herself into a new relationship with, in an attempt to save face in front of Grant. The nightclub scene between Dunne, Grant and Bellamy alone is alone worth the price of admission. Very funny movie.

  • I love this movie!
