Description:Thomas Tyler (Tyrone Power) is a reporter doing a snarky series on millionaire heiress Sara Farley (Gene Tierney). He follows her to a ski lodge and pretends to be a sympathetic reporter out to counter the articles (that he himself wrote). But along the way he falls in love with her and decides to print a retraction. But when Sara finds out who he really is, she decides to get back at him by reporting that they got married. Tyler is fired by his paper and loses his girlfriend. He fights back by assuming the rights of a husband. The two fight back and forth — at truck stops, in Sara's house, in court and in jail. In the end, Tyler isn't sure whether they really got married or not. Sara won't admit the truth, but she agrees to marry him "again."

Review - That Wonderful Urge

A plot so ridiculous and full of holes that it was impossible to take seriously. It was one of those stories that would be easily resolved if the participants would stop talking and listen once in a while. But on the other hand, it had Gene Tierney.
