Reviews in German: "Plot outline: Margit Agnew (Loy) has got her younger sister Irene's wedding ì
all planned out. She's picked out the perfect husband (Beal), the perfect ì
dress, the perfect date, everything. Only thing she didn't count on is ì
Charlie Lodge (Powell), a bohemian who promises to make Irene a big Hollywood ì
actress. Complications ensue when Margit tries to keep Charlie away from ì
Irene.

I liked this movie a lot better the second time around. Like a lot of ì
screwball comedies, it's light on plot, but the laughs come regularly. John ì
Beal as Waldo, Irene's lackluster fiancé, provides some of the biggest laughs ì
as Charlie tries to coax him into being more forceful.

Production note: Production of Double Wedding was halted for six weeks when ì
Powell's fiancée Jean Harlow died suddenly of uremic poisoning. Myrna Loy, ì
who was also a good friend of Harlow's, said later that she couldn't bear to ì
watch this film because it brought back such sad memories.

Final rating: **** out of *****" (movies.stennieville.com/ ì
