I Love You Again

William Powell and Myrna Loy recombine in I Love You Again to create a couple that is wonderfully different from the ever-popular Nick and Nora Charles. Working with Thin Man director W. S. Van Dyke and a screenplay full of ingenious twists and turns, they transform the old amnesia, double-identity formula into a laugh-riot. They portray the Larry Wilsons of Haberville, Pa.--the beautiful and sardonic Kay Wilson and her pompous Babbitt of a husband, Larry. Their nine-year marriage could have used some of the Charles' juice from the start, but just as Kay is about to sue for divorce on the grounds of ennui, Larry undertakes a sea voyage from which he returns a different man--literally. It seems that this Larry Wilson fellow was a fiction, a victim of amnesia, and now a professional con man named George Carey is stuck with Wilson's angry wife, his boy scout troops and charities, his job and, he hopes, his bank account. A thoroughly delightful vehicle for Powell and Loy's fast-talking talents--as the N. Y. Times rave review read, “A sure screwball for the corner pocket.”
