Ginger Marries a Wuss
8 August 2014
A young professor (Jimmy Stewart) meets a nightclub singer (Ginger Rogers) and it's love at first sight. After a whirlwind courtship, the two marry. He takes her home to meet his conservative parents, but when he gets there he chickens out of telling them about their marriage. The rest of the movie is Jimmy trying to work up the nerve to tell them while everybody gets the wrong idea about Ginger.

Ginger's great and she does have nice chemistry with Jimmy. The problem is Jimmy's character is so weak that it's hard to sympathize with him. As the movie progresses you find yourself thinking that Ginger could (and should) do better. It's still enjoyable, helped by a great cast. Love the catfight scene. But something is definitely missing. See it for Ginger because she's terrific in this.
