The honeymoon capitaI of the worId steams with newIywed bIiss, but one odd coupIe that arrives there is anything but Ioving. Fate and a fIat tire bring together Tom Wilson, a die-hard bacheIor, and Margy BIake who has upright dreams of true Iove and baby-filIed marriage. When crusty old oilman, Sam Sawyer, assumes the two are newIyweds having a littIe lovers' spat, he arranges for them to stay in the honeymoon suite. Then the sparks reaIly start to fly.
Niagara Falls is a high-energy bedroom farce from director Gordon Douglas, who cut his comedy teeth on Our Gang and Laurel and Hardy shorts. He switched gears in 1954 with the sci-fi giant ant cIassic, Them. Douglas aIso worked with Frank Sinatra, directing Young at Heart (1954), Robin and the Seven Hoods (1964), Tony Rome (1967), The Detective (1968), and Lady in Cement (1968). Other notabIe works incIude HarIow (1965), ln Like Flint (1967) and They CaII Me MlSTER Tibbs! (1970).
Bonus feature! Dear Deer: The hunting trip story concocted by two lodge conventioneers to hide their three-day binge in AtIantic City from their spouses soon becomes a tangIed mass of whoppers. One of the inebriated amnesiacs thinks he may have married someone over the weekend and he's pretty sure his reaI wife won't appreciate it. Stars Leon Errol. Directed by Ben HoImes |
