I wouldn't want to go on living if I thought it was all just eating, and sleeping, and taking my clothes off--I mean putting them on.

Quick Hits - I Was a Male War Bride
This film is a Cary Grant vehicle meant to show off his trademark acerbic wit but he doesn't click with Ann Sheridan so it feels like you're watching a trainwreck marriage in progress and is quite uncomfortable. On its face I Was A Male War Bride is a screwball influenced comedy but I read it as more of a cautionary tale about committing to a relationship with a person you don't really like just to get in bed with them.
