Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

A ridiculous but reasonably amusing comedy of manners that is held together by the efforts of an amiable cast led by Franchot Tone, Tom Conway, Ann Richards, Frances Rafferty and particularly Clarence Kolb.Pacy direction by Leigh Jason from the start and almost to the climax -- where it tends to stall a bit -- helps overcome the constant twisting of the plot in its amiable efforts to get the scenario past the censor. Just how well Jason succeeds is a matter for the viewer, not the critic. I would not be surprised if the movie had amassed ratings from zero to a hundred here at IMDb.Personally, I thought that the movie held together rather well until the action reached a climax that in my view was both too far nonsensical on the one hand and too much of an obvious sell-out to the Legion of Decency on the other.But you can't say the cast and the director were asleep on the job! Production values are reasonably enticing. The film is available on a very good quality Alpha DVD.

In Great Britain, an American man fathers some children during World War II service. He seems to desert them, but may actually have amnesia. The mother goes to America where she finds the man does not remember having amnesia. He is going to marry another woman, which would give him two wives. However, the man begins to like the wife and children he doesn't remember. He must choose between the two women, but also please the new one's father who happens to be his boss. This movie originally seemed average, but a second viewing has made me forget some of the finer points.*** Lost Honeymoon (3/47) Leigh Jason ~ Franchot Tone, Ann Richards, Tom Conway, Frances Rafferty

Lost Honeymoon which was produced by the short lived Eagle-Lion studio is a somewhat silly comedy about a man who married while he was having a bout of amnesia. He went back to America where he is now a successful architect and set to marry the boss's daughter.But the wife he married in wartime Great Britain has died and her best friend has taken the two small mementos of the short lived marriage. And the friend has forged the passport in the name of the deceased wife. That can and does raise the eyebrows of immigration officials.Franchot Tone is the lucky man about to find out he's a proud father of twins and Ann Richards plays the woman pretending to be his wife. This sad to say is just plain bizarre. Why not just get a passport and take them over yourself? The premise of this comedy is just plain silly.Frances Rafferty is the boss's daughter and Clarence Kolb her choleric father. Tom Conway chips in with a rather droll performance as Tone's doctor and best friend who takes an interest in Richards himself.It strikes me but this whole plot premise was done in a most serious vein and much better in Random Harvest.Though Franchot Tone does not ever wear a tuxedo, he almost does but not quite, he does spend a great deal of the last 10 minutes of the film being chased by cops driving an automobile in his pajamas.A really fine group of players in roles type cast for them can't really raise Lost Honeymoon above the mediocre.

With a far-fetched and often silly story, "Lost Honeymoon" is only mildly entertaining, and that mainly because of some decent performances by a mostly good cast. The romantic comedy story itself doesn't work very well.Franchot Tone stars as a successful American architect who one day is confronted by an Englishwoman with two children, who claims to have married him when he served in England during World War II. The architect doesn't remember anything about it. Both the architect and the woman have secrets of their own, leading to an initially complicated, then rather silly, situation. While at times mildly entertaining, the story gets completely predictable very quickly, and is never very believable.The only thing that keeps the movie from being a total loss is that the cast does a mostly acceptable job with some ridiculous characters. They do make you care a little bit about the characters, even though they are not very credible. Tone, in particular, does as well as anyone could with his situation. But this movie would only be of any real interest to those who enjoy all romantic comedies regardless of quality.
