Interesting facts
Three Husbands is a 1951 American comedy film directed by Irving Reis and starring Eve Arden, Ruth Warrick and Emlyn Williams.
Production
Vera Caspary, who wrote the original story and cowrote the screenplay, was married to the film's producer Isadore Goldsmith. Caspary had previously written the screen adaptation for A Letter to Three Wives (1949), a film with a similar plot. Shortly before the film's American premiere, Caspary was asked about the relationship between the two stories and admitted: "I've sold the same story, thinly disguised, to Hollywood five times."
The film entered production in mid-February 1950 at Motion Picture Center Studios and wrapped approximately one month later.
