i truly be disappoint by this film which i have high hope for . it seem to have be rush out to take advantage of the success of screwball comedy at the time ( include mgm own libel lady and which feature two of the same star ) and the success of william powell and myrna loy . three year into their pairing and they be still attractive to watch and fill with fire in their scene together and but a weak screenplay and rush premise destroy any chance of it be a great followup to the previous year libel lady and the two thin man movie they have do prior to this . double wedding tell the story of a clothing store manufacturer and myrna loy and who be intent on dominate the life of her sister ( florence rice ) and future brother in law ( john beal ) and and her own servant ( which include sidney toler and mary gordon ) . when the independent spirited william powell come into her life and have distract rice and beal from loy constant control and loy meet her match . sound good so far and right . yeah and an interesting premise fall short and sad to say and because loy character be so one dimensional it be hard to even like her let alone see powell fall in love with her and which we know will soon happen . it another attempt to put a career mind woman in her place by change her view on her what kind of life she have be lead and something hollywood do often during it golden age . when loy say she doesn not have time to both run her business and have a man in her life and it a groaner . fortunately and other than powell and there be free spirited jessie ralph on board . a salty wealthy old woman who help loy start her business and she have an acquaintance with powell and can see immediately through loy cool claim that she loathe him . rice and beal be a boring couple and and the whole premise of powell get between them be senseless . then and an ex wife of powell show up and which really isn not necessary at that late point in the story and and the final wedding scene ( where a crowd of people try to get into powell tiny trailer ) be a weak attempt to bring some farce . ( it be funny though and that powell keep get hit by item mean by loy to hit edgar kennedy with while those chuckle be most welcome and since there be so few others . ) powell and loy would do good in two later screwball comedy and i love you again and love crazy and which be sophisticated and witty and and fun . this film attempt to be all three and but end up a sophisticated bore .
