Move Over, Darling
Move Over, Darling is a 1963 American romantic comedy film directed by Michael Gordon and starring Doris Day, James Garner, and Polly Bergen. It was filmed in DeLuxe Color and CinemaScope, and released by 20th Century Fox. The supporting cast features Thelma Ritter, Fred Clark, Don Knotts, Elliott Reid, and Chuck Connors.
The film is a remake of the 1940 screwball comedy film My Favorite Wife, starring Irene Dunne, Cary Grant, and Gail Patrick. In between these films, an unfinished version, titled Something's Got to Give, began shooting in 1962, directed by George Cukor and starring Marilyn Monroe, Dean Martin, and Cyd Charisse.
Move Over, Darling was chosen as the 1964 Royal Film Performance, and had its UK premiere at the Odeon Leicester Square on February 24, 1964, in the presence of H.R.H. Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh.
At the 21st Golden Globe Awards, Day was nominated for Best Actress in a Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy but lost to Shirley MacLaine in Irma la Douce.
Lawyer Nick Arden is in court to get two petitions approved: he wants his first wife Ellen Wagstaff Arden declared legally dead after she went missing five years before when the plane they were traveling on crashed into the Pacific Ocean and he wants to marry psychoanalyst Bianca Steele. After some confusion, Judge Bryson declares Ellen legally dead and marries Nick and Bianca, who then immediately leave for Monterey for their honeymoon.
On the same day, Ellen returns to shore on a U.S. Navy submarine, which had rescued her from a deserted island where she had spent the last five years. When she returns to her and Nick's home in Los Angeles, she encounters her young daughters, who do not remember her, but she cannot bring herself to tell them the truth. Shocked at Ellen's sight, her mother-in-law Grace Arden tells her of the new marriage and that the honeymoon will be at the same hotel where Nick and Ellen spent their honeymoon. At Grace's urging, Ellen flies to Monterey to prevent the consummation of the marriage.
Ellen arrives at the hotel and reveals her presence to Nick, who is overjoyed to reunite with her and wants to stay with her. Ellen requests that he tell Bianca the truth first. When Nick returns to a confused and angry Bianca, Ellen eavesdrops on their conversation. Nick fails to tell Bianca the truth and Ellen leaves the hotel angrily. When Nick sees Ellen depart, he fakes an injury to prevent further advances by Bianca.
The next day, when Nick returns home with Bianca, he finds Ellen posing as a Swedish masseuse employed by Grace to help him with his back. As Ellen and Bianca tussle, an insurance adjuster arrives with papers for a Mrs. Arden to sign regarding a Stephen Burkett. Nick is informed that Ellen was on the deserted island with a man called Stephen Burkett for the whole five years and they were rescued together. They jokingly called each other "Adam" and "Eve". Nick is furious that Ellen did not tell him about Burkett and confronts her. She tells him that Burkett is a nerd and that nothing happened between them.
