MADE FOR EACH OTHER (1939) - ♦♦

Directed by - John Cromwell

Written by - Jo Swerling, Rose Franken, Frank Ryan

Starring - James Stewart, Carole Lombard, Charles Coburn

 

"An amiable lawyer turns down a successful career by turning the hand of the daughter of his law firm’s boss by marrying a woman he just met in Boston. However, the newly-weds must cope with financial struggles, a mother who does not approve of the marriage, and things going bad to worse when their baby becomes ill. Stewart anticipates his It’s a Wonderful Life character in this comedy drama drama. However, Cromwell is no Capra, and the balance in this melodrama is far from resembling the afore mentioned film."
