Mary Mary

Book publisher Bob McKellaway is engaged to beautiful young Tiffany Richards. Everyone thinks she's perfect for him. Everyone except Bob's ex-wife Mary (Debbie Reynolds in a sparkling performance). She may know someone else who'd be even better for Bob: herself.

This delightful, sophisticated marital romp based on the stage hit by Jean Kerr (Please Don't Eat the Daisies) tosses in a blizzard, an IRS audit and a dashing movie star (Michael Rennie) with an eye for Mary to keep the comedy humming along. Mary, Mary is all about laughs. And all about love - finding it, losing it and finding it again."

This film version of the Broadway play of the same name was produced and directed by Mervyn LeRoy. Bob (Barry Nelson) is a divorced book publisher with a pile tax receipts and facing an audit from the IRS. At the insistence of his accountant, he must get together with his ex-wife Mary (Debbie Reynolds) to find out just what the pieces of paper mean. Bob is engaged to marry Tiffany (Diane McBain), the daughter of a wealthy New England family. When a snowstorm traps Bob and Mary in his apartment, their all night discussions lead to an eventual reconciliation in this amusing comedy. Tifanny graciously bows out of the picture when she realizes the two are still in love.
