同病相怜原名:Consolation Marriage,
After their respective lovers, Elaine Brandon and Aubrey, jilt them to marry wealthier suitors, Steve Porter and Mary Brown meet and become close friends. Although they are still in love with their former flames, Steve, a New York sports reporter, and Mary, a shop owner, decide to marry, agreeing to an "open" arrangement.
An open marriage on the rebound看起来好像很过瘾,Dunne和O'Brien的化学反应也好,结尾还是照常保守得让人失望——为什么男女主选择彼此非得很大程度上是因为孩子呢?
