And So They Were Married (1936)

When a divorcee (Mary Astor) and a widower (Melvyn Douglas) find themselves snowed in at a ski lodge, their initial antagonism toward each other quickly turns to romance. But her daughter (Edith Fellows) and his son (Jackie Moran) are having none of it and plot to break up the romance. Directed by Elliott Nugent (UP IN ARMS), I enjoyed this romantic comedy as long as it was situated at the ski lodge (about 2/3 of the movie) but once they left it, it starts to fizzle fast. Douglas and Astor are appealing and some of their best work has been in comedy (Douglas in NINOTCHKA, Astor in PALM BEACH STORY) so they bring some sparkle to the proceedings. It's not a screwball comedy, more of a 1930s version of a Disney family movie especially with the two kids at the center. I can't really recommend it but if you come across it, it's pleasing and amusing enough. With Dorothy Stickney, Donald Meek and Romaine Callender.
