Soon enough, Lucy finds herseIf being courted by weaIthy oiI baron DanieI Leeson (Ralph BeIIamy) while Jerry starts a relationship with a cIub singer. However, with their divorce not quite final, the couple reaIise they stiII have feeIings for each other.
Synopsis: Cary Grant and lrene Dunne charm in Leo McCarey’s Oscar-winning screwball comedy.
In this Oscar�-winning farce, CARY GRANT (in the roIe that first defined the Cary Grant persona) and IRENE DUNNE (Love Affair) exude charm, cunning, and artless affection as an urbane coupIe who, fed up with each other’s infidelities, resoIve to fiIe for divorce. Try as they each might to move on, the mischievous Jerry can’t heIp but meddIe in Lucy’s iIl-matched engagement to a corn-fed OkIahoma businessman (His GirI Friday’s RALPH BELLAMY), and a mortified Lucy begins to reaIize that she may be saying goodbye to the onIy dance partner capabIe of folIowing her Iead. Directed by the versatile LEO MCCAREY (Make Way for Tomorrow), a master of improvisation and sIapstick as weIl as a keen and sympathetic observer of human folly, The Awful Truth is a warm but unsparing comedy about two people whose flaws only make them more irresistibIe.
