Three For The Show (1955, U.S.A.)

Jack Lemmon and Betty Grable star in this musical re-make of Too Many Husbands which infuses the original story with the backstage action of a musical-comedy.

Grable plays Julie Stewart, whose husband Marty (Lemmon), has been reportedly killed in action. Shortly after the widow marries Marty’s best friend and partner, Vernon Lowndes (Gower Champion), but then Marty turns up. While Julie tries to decide whether “happily ever after” will be with Marty or hubby number two, she takes up residence with both! To top it off, Julie’s best friend Gwen when she becomes a romantic and professional rival.

Will Julie choose Marty or Vernon, or will she lose the love of both through indecision?
