We're Not Married! is a delightful comedy from 1952 that brings together some of the most talented actors of the time. Starring Ginger Rogers, Marilyn Monroe, Victor Moore and more, the movie tells the story of five couples who find out that their weddings were invalid due to a technicality. As they go through the process of getting married again, they all must face the realities of their relationships and decide if they truly want to be with their partners.

The film starts off with a prologue that sets the stage for the rest of the story. We meet a judge who has been married for 30 years and has seen countless couples come through his courtroom. He tells us about five couples who all got married on the same day, and all thought they had found their perfect match. However, due to a technicality, their marriages were not valid, and they are all shocked to find out that they have to get married again.

The first couple we meet is Annabel Jones (Ginger Rogers) and Jeff Norris (Fred Allen). Annabel is a famous radio personality, and Jeff is her put-upon husband who always does what she says. They are both skeptical about getting married again and wonder if they are really meant to be together.

Next up is Perry (Victor Moore) and Mrs. Bush (Elspeth Dudgeon), an older couple who have been married for years but have always wanted to go on a world tour. They see this as a second chance to make their dream a reality but soon realize that they may not be as compatible as they once thought.

Then we have Katie Woodruff (Marilyn Monroe) and Pinky Peterson (David Wayne), a young couple who got married impulsively and are not sure if they are ready for the responsibilities of marriage. They both have dreams of making it big in Hollywood, but their different approaches to achieving their goals may put a strain on their relationship.

The fourth couple is Freddie Melrose (Paul Douglas) and Eve Melrose (Eve Arden), a bickering pair who have been married for ten years and are constantly arguing. They are not sure why they got married in the first place but decide to give it another try and see if they can get along better this time around.

Finally, there's Ramona Gladwyn (Jeanne Crain), a beauty queen who married a wealthy businessman, Steve Gladwyn (Timothy Carey), for his money. However, she soon realizes that money can't buy happiness and wonders if she should follow her heart and marry her true love instead.

Throughout the movie, we see each couple go through the process of getting married again and dealing with the issues that come up along the way. There are misunderstandings, arguments, and revelations that force each character to confront their feelings and decide if they are truly in love with their partner.

One of the highlights of the movie is the performances of the talented cast. Ginger Rogers is charming as always in her role as Annabel, and Marilyn Monroe shines in her scenes as the ambitious Katie. Victor Moore is hilarious as the lovable Perry, and Eve Arden is a scene-stealer as the quick-witted Eve. The chemistry between the actors is palpable, and they all bring a unique energy to their roles.

The film also has some wonderful moments of humor, particularly in the scenes involving Pinky's attempts to make it in Hollywood and Freddie and Eve's constant bickering. However, there are also moments of heartbreak and introspection that give the movie a depth and emotional resonance.

Overall, We're Not Married! is a delightful romantic comedy that showcases some of the best talents of the time. With its hilarious moments, heartwarming scenes, and memorable performances, the film is a must-see classic that still holds up today.

We're Not Married! is a 1952 comedy with a runtime of 1 hour and 26 minutes. It has received moderate reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 6.4.
