A new Justice of the Peace
performed five weddings before his license was valid. The Court sends out five letters to the couples telling them
they are not legally married. Each
of the five couples has a different reaction to the letter. Couple #1 is a radio team. Couple #2 is Mrs. Mississippi switching
to Miss Mississippi. Couple #3
doesn’t have anything to say to each other. Couple #4 is a millionaire and his wife wants a
divorce. Couple #5 is a young
soldier shipping out and his wife is going to have a baby.
This film is in black
and white and it is interesting how not really being married changes each of
the couples. Some get married
again but some do not. Some are
happy to not be married. I thought
the clothing of this period, the cars and hairstyles were interesting. 3* (This movie is OK)
