Best selling crime novelist Charles suffers from terrible writer's block and is struggling to finish his first screenplay. His picture-perfect new wife Ruth is doing her best to keep him focused so they can fulfill her dream of leaving London for Hollywood. Charles' quest for inspiration leads him to invite the eccentric mystic Madame Acarti to perform a seþance in his home. He gets more than he bargained for when Madame Acarti inadvertently summons the spirit of his first wife: the brilliant and fiery Elvira. Ready to pick up her life right where she left off, Elvira is shocked to discover the prim and proper Ruth is now married to her husband and running her household. Charles finds himself stuck between his two wives and their increasingly over-the-top attempts to outdo one another.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

This could have been so good submitted by logista on June 20, 2022, 7:45pm This movie is an hour and a half long, and felt much, much longer. Even fast-forwarding didn’t help that much.

It had no real sparkle. I was hoping for fast wit and got flat double entendres.

The house was pretty awesome though.

Entertaining submitted by jdgerich on June 25, 2022, 9:00pm Have never seen previous versions and found this to be a lighthearted, enjoyable comedy.

Funny submitted by majean on July 22, 2022, 4:16pm A great rendition of this story. Terrific actors.
