[Starring] Emlyn Williams, Eve Arden, Ruth Warwick in the film comedy Three Husbands
Max Bard is, or rather was, an attractive bachelor. On his death he leaves three letters for three husbands which suggest that his relationship with their wives was rather more than friendly. This gay, sparkling comedy has a surprise ending.
