One Night In Lisbon: Review

starstarstarstar
A spirited romantic comedy set in London during WW II starring MacMurray as an airman from Texas who ferries warplanes from the US to England. While hiding out in a London air-raid shelter, MacMurray meets Carroll, a proper, well-mannered English girl who has learned to expect the most formal of behavior from men. MacMurray, with his Texas twang, is completely foreign to her, but he does manages to win her over by singing an off-key rendition of "Home on the Range." When the skies clear, MacMurray and Carroll set out to have themselves a carefree time, but obstacles get in their way. Loder, MacMurray's rival for Carroll's affections--a very proper Royal Navy commander--consistently makes a crowd of their twosome. MacMurray's former wife, Morison, also pops up, similarly cramping the lovebirds' style. They take a trip to neutral Lisbon, where they get ensnarled in a spy ring. Of course, it's up to them to crack it, which they do before MacMurray proposes to Carroll and invites her to return to America with him. Pretty average in it execution, ONE NIGHT IN LISBON benefits from an excellent supporting cast, including Burke and Gwenn, who are sympathetic to the couple's desires, as well as Whitty, Denny, Gilbert, and Dalio. This film was the fourth, and final, pairing for MacMurray and Carroll, who had previously appeared in CAFE SOCIETY (1939); HONEYMOON IN BALI;'and VIRGINIA (both 1940). leave a comment
