Product Description

Move Over Darling is a wonderful romantic comedy starring screen legend and number one box office star of the time, Doris Day.

Five years after his wife Ellen (Doris Day) disappears in a plane crash, lawyer Nick Arden (James Garner) declares her legally dead. He embarks on a new life by marrying wife number two Bianca and the newlyweds set off on honeymoon. On the same day Ellen, having been rescued from a desert island by the Navy, arrives back home to be told the news. She immediately heads for the happy couple's resort where things are about to get complicated.

Nominated for a Golden Globe, Move Over Darling is a delightful fast-paced comedy romp starring one of the most popular and successful American superstars of the post-war era.

4.0 out of 5 stars Romantic Comedy 4 Oct 2007
By M. A. Ramos TOP 1000 REVIEWER
Format:DVD
The original film in 1911 was titled "Enoch Arden" and was inspired by the poem of the same name by Alfred Lord Tennyson. In 1940 the movie "My Favorite Wife" was made. It, like this re-make is a comic inversion of Enoch Arden poem and movie. In this 1960's remake a man who is ready to have his missing wife declared legally dead and remarry finds himself in a predicament when his first wife turns up after five years of being gone!

This remake turned out to be a hit right when 20th Century FOX studios had to have income. There is no question Doris Day made this remake so popular. She is the girl next door who brings her own innocent charm and comic skill to a movie the whole family can watch. The digital remastering of the original master makes the movie quality look better then it did when originally released. The DVD also has behind-the-scenes filmmaking documentary, a Marilyn vs. Doris featurette, a welcome chat with Polly Bergen and Part II of D. W. Griffith silent drama, ENOCH ARDEN (1911). This is an enjoyable DVD.

5.0 out of 5 stars A good situation comedy 6 April 2003
By bernie VINE™ VOICE
Format:VHS Tape
Yes, I know this is a remake of "My Favorite Wife." Yet you could say that it was designed for Doris Day and James Garner. I would not go as far as saying that this is an improvement yet there are do many amusing scenes and characters that you can easily blur this with the original. They could not have picked a better (slimier) insurance agent than John Astin.

Basic story is his first wife gets lost on an island and is presumed dead. He remarries and before he can consummate the new marriage his previous wife s found. What will he do? What will the wives do? What does his mother do? What will you do?

Excellent light-hearted comedy - good to have a film with no foul language or violence, funny and a good ending.
