What critics compared My Favorite Wife to
Hoping to be cheered up, they go to see Charlie Chaplin's "The Great Dictator," although if they'd bought tickets to another comedy of the same period, Cary Grant and Irene Dunne's "My Favorite Wife," they might have been better prepared for what fate holds in store for them.
This situation is not unlike that found in earlier movies without the “supernatural” trappings—think, for example, of “My Favorite Wife” (1940) and its remake, “Move Over, Darling” (1963), in which a supposedly dead wife returns to find her husband remarried, and he must make the choice between her and his second wife.
