“THE LADY ESCAPES”
Treating lightly the light housekeeping of two married lovers, who hold hands mainly to keep their fists from flying, "The Lady Escapes,” Twentieth Century-Fox’s mirthful matrimonial hit, opens tomorrow at the Cosy Theatre. A pair of rough-and-tumble sweethearts who just can’t leave love enough alone, Glorio Stuart and Michael Whalen are featured in a martial version of marital life which finally culminates in an attempt to find a second husband for Gloria before Michael gets Reno-vated. The chase leads across the Atlantic, with Glorio, who is really chasing her husband, ostensibly in pursuit of George Sanders, a French playwright. Michael, not knowing that actually he is the pursued, is chasing his wife, and the ensuing international complication, involving also Cora Witherspoon and Gerald Oliver-Smith, make for' a generally joyous occasion for man or maid, married or unmarried. Don Ettlinger wrote the screen play, which was adapted from the successful Continental novel and play, “My Second Wife,” by Eugene Heltai, Hungarian author.
