Nunnally Johnson wrote five stories based on realisation that couples aren't in fact married, with mixed results:
Ginger Rogers and Fred Allen (who we've just enjoyed in Full House) are a bickering morning radio show couple (whose show is 99% ads in Hollywood dig at the competition).
Marilyn Monroe is beauty queen (not married) to David Wayne (also Full House), who had a lot of silly ideas about who would be the boss in the relationship: events backfire on him but he doesn't care - he's married to MM...
Paul Douglas (can't recall why he's so familiar) fantasises (in a series of dissolves) about being with other women, though he's fortunate enough to be married to Eve Arden - silly man.
Louis Calhern finds himself being set up for divorce by Zsa Zsa Gabor.
Eddie Bracken needs to get married to Mitzi Gaynor - quick.
Victor Moore and Jane Darwell are the couple who haven't married anyone properly in the first place.

20th Century Fox again. Reasonably good.
