She pines for hubby Number One (Tyrone Power), an irresponsible playboy. Young runs into Tyrone again during a Florida vacation, spurning him at first because he hasn't mended his old carefree ways. But that old black magic soon has Young under Tyrone's spell, and boring old Lyle Talbot is left holding the bag. The footloose and fancy-free Second Honeymoon is based on a story by Philip Wylie, an otherwise cantankerous critic of social foibles. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Nonsensical junk with a beautiful pair of stars but a dumb script that wastes them and the wonderful Claire Trevor, who at least adds a bit of zip to her scenes. No worse than a millon other B's churned out in the thirties but no better either.
