Move Over Darling (1963)
Famous for being the reboot of Something’s Got to Give, the last movie Marilyn Monroe was working on at the time of her death, Move Over, Darling was turned into a fluffy, silly Doris Day movie. She’s married to James Garner, but so is Polly Bergen. Needless to say, neither wife is happy about the situation, and the entire film is spent trying to sort things out.
Is James Garner a bigamist? Are you going to not like him in this movie? Thankfully, he’s still his likable self, and there’s a perfectly logical explanation: Doris Day was lost at sea for five years, and James Garner thought she was dead so he moved on and remarried. There’s a very silly scene—although that doesn’t really narrow it down—in which James Garner imagines Doris on a tropical island for the past five years, passing the time with a half-naked Chuck Connors. Jealousy runs rampant in this romantic comedy, but if you like fluffy flicks or watching a young James Garner in his swim trunks, you can sit through this one. It’s not nearly the worst movie Doris Day made in the 60s, so you’ll most likely roll your eyes instead of groan when the end credits roll.
