Too Many Husbands (1940)
This rom-com stars Jean Arthur (delightful), Fred MacMurray (in his charming male lead phase), and Melvyn Douglas (excellent comedic turn). Basically, this movie could have been called "Polyamory would solve this relationship problem if society wasn't so uptight." Witty dialogue and snarky riposte made me laugh.

Indestructible Man (1956)
Too many close-ups of Lon Chaney's eyes doing ... nothing? That's one example of the odd directorial and editorial choices made during the production of this horror sci fi flick. And the phrase "hysterical woman" was repeated ad nauseum. Murders galore and dark violence. Not recommended. The costumes on the women were something ... the only women characters were burlesque dancers. Sigh.
