"How does that work out?"

Watch the Doris Day move "Move Over Darling". She was married to James Garner. Drowned at sea supposedly, but really was alive on an island with a good looking guy. Declared dead by judge so hubby could marry. Came back just in time to stop her husbands honeymoon. Thelma Ritter was the mother-in-law. She paid Don Knotts to say he was on an island with her and interested only in studying flowers. Watch the movie to find out the ending....

A bit of trivia for ya... That's a remake of "My Favorite Wife" and was originally titled, "Somethings Got to Give" and starred Marilyn Monroe, Dean Martin and I think Cyd Cherise (I could be wrong about Cyd). Marilyn was fired and production scrapped. Supposedly when she was in negotiations to start filming again, but was found dead on August 4th or 5th (depending on which version you believe).

A couple of years later they renamed the movie and put Doris Day in it instead. Fox released the footage from Somethings Got to Give and it's really a shame that it was never made. Marilyn looked really beautiful and it was very funny.
