Wedlock Deadlock

Wedlock Deadlock (1947)

Newlyweds Eddie (Joe DeRita) and Betty (Christine McIntyre) barely moved into their new house before Betty's mother (Esther Howard), aunt (Patsy Moran) and brother (Charles Williams) show up and give every indication of becoming permanent free-loading guests. Dick (William Newell) gives Eddie a plan that will cause his unwanted guests to vacate the premises, by having Dick and his wife, Ruby (Dorothy Granger), move in as Eddie's relatives, and even bigger pests, thereby causing Betty's relatives to move out. The plan works and Eddie and Betty are pleased until Dick announces that he and Ruby have intentions of staying on.

Интересные факты

Wedlock Deadlock is a 1947 American comedy short film directed by Edward Bernds and starring Joe DeRita, Dorothy Granger and Norman Ollestead. It was written by Elwood Ullman and released by Columbia Pictures on December 18, 1947. It was the third of four shorts in the Joe DeRita series produced by Columbia from 1946–1948; all entries were remakes of other Columbia shorts.

Production notes

Wedlock Deadlock is a remake of the Monte Collins short film Unrelated Relations (1936).

DeRita did not think highly of his output at Columbia Pictures, once commenting, "My comedy in those scripts was limited to getting hit on the head with something, then going over to my screen wife to say, 'Honey, don't leave me!' For this kind of comedy material, you could have gotten a busboy to do it and it would have been just as funny."
