Just when you think it's safe to come out of the ...
Wait! Let me start again.
Just when I thought I was through with "Immediately Free Wholesome Weekend Date Movie" it rears up again. Either I discover a perfect movie OR somebody mentions it to me, as in,
"When are you going to start doing that Wholesome Date movie thing again?"
Yesterday, it was some of both. I came across the following film when it was recommended to me by YouTube and it's Cookies. How could I say "No" to it?
I had never heard of "Woman's World" which is strange considering what a huge Van Heflin fan I am. And when I discovered it also had Fred McMurray, June Allyson and Lauren Bacall in it too, I figured it would be "wholesome" and also have some GREAT clothing from the 1950s in it too.
However, what I didn't expect was a well acted, clever character study of three marriages in various stages. Clifton Webb portrays the head of a huge car company with headquarters in New York who brings three medium level employees (and their wives) to the Big Apple for the weekend in order to evaluate and choose one to take over for the CEO who recently died. It is a high pressure but lucrative position that they must compete for and we learn all sorts of things along the way about people and what makes us all tick. And there is a good amount of romance, nice clothes and some cool, old cars too. As well as a few plot twists and a happy-ish, though unexpected ending.
And so I finished it and thought, "Wholesome Weekend Date Movie" will see yet another reprise.
Let me remind you of what a movie requires to make the grade for the WWDM.
