Audience Member Ad executive feels pressure of deadline to save big beer account while his stuck up wife fails to gain his attention. Dated, younger viewers may have missed the Lawrence Welk joke. I'll always remember George Gobel for the famous clip from the Carson show where he has Johnny, Ed along with guests Bob Hope and Dean Martin in stitches with some pretty good material. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Not great. When the wise cracks don't come off, and generally speaking here they don't, it becomes a chore to watch and not a joy. Although the same can't be said for Diana Dors. Wow. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member This 1956 comedy tries to mimic 'The Seven Year Itch', a massive hit the previous year, with its odd couple of a nerdy ad-man (George Gobel) and a blonde bombshell wife (Diana Dors), to whose obvious charms he seems utterly oblivious. The film also anticipates 'The Girl Can't Help It', a subsequent hit for another sexy blonde, Jayne Mansfield (after being reluctantly passed on by the talented Dors, who returned to England after one more film. Her dream of Hollywood stardom was scuppered by a controlling husband and the extra burden of being sold as 'the British Marilyn Monroe'.) While it's not a patch on 'Itch', 'I Married a Woman' is a fun, silly movie that could only have been made in the 50s. There's also a very amusing cameo from John Wayne, no less. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Sometimes amusingly dated 50s comedy has an advertising executive attempting to balance the pressures of an overbearing boss, his bombshell wife who feels neglected and his live-in mother-in-law. Angie Dickenson and John Wayne appear briefly. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Diana is a knockout to be sure and the supporting cast is full of talented performers, Nita Talbot, Jessie Royce Landis and Adolphe Menjou, but Gobel just isn't feature film material. He did fine on TV but he's too recessive to hold a movie together. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Read all reviews
