Daringly mixing comedy and drama in a rare example of American neorealism, George Cukor created a picture that portrayed the difficult, frayed life of a working-class couple and the breakup of their blue-collar marriage, a topic that rarely made its way to the screen. Cukor's regular collaborators Ruth Gordon and Garson Kanin provided him a script filled with fine dialogue and strong dramatic moments, and Judy Holliday, fresh from her Oscar-winning success in Cukor's BORN YESTERDAY, reunites with the director to play the lead role. As Florence Keefer, Holliday portrays a woman bent on divorcing her husband Chet (Aldo Ray), who will have to give up her unrealistic expectations in life in order to find true happiness. The film chronicles their misfortunes and good times, and the relationship as it unravels. THE MARRYING KIND was written specifically for Judy Holliday, then at the peak of her career.
