Without Love (1945) - Without Love (1945) - DVD

Every rental is rented, every sublet is let in crowded Washington, D.C. So Jamie Rowan does her part for the wartime lodging crunch by sharing her home with military inventor Pat Jamieson. There are a few conditions, natch. First, for appearances, they must get married. Second, there's plenty of room for each other but no room for love. Spencer Tracy and Katharine Hepburn team for the third time in Without Love, played for laughs and above all, with love. Donald Ogden Stewart adapts Philip Barrys play (five years earlier, both helped shape Hepburns comeback movie The Philadelphia Story). And Keenan Wynns bibulous bon vivant, Lucille Balls wisecracking Girl Friday and Gloria Grahames flower girl add to the movies urbane wit and warmth.
