Lucky Partners (DVD)

Critic Bosley Crowther of the New York Times made it known moviegoers were in luck with Lucky Partners. Likening the film to fine champagne, he wrote: 'It belongs to approximately the same vintage as the Awful Truth and My Favorite Wife - a comedy that is dry and sparkling and bubbles till the last drop.' Ginger Rogers and Ronald Colman are the effervescent partnership, strangers who share the cost of a sweepstakes ticket. The catch: she'll go on a platonic honeymoon with him if they win. The result: their ticket pays off. So away the two go, with her suspicious fuddy-duddy fiancé (Jack Carson), myriad complications and, of course, Cupid trailing. Uncork the fun.
