Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Real-life husband and wife James Kirkwood and Lila Lee play Mr. and Mrs. in Another Man's Wife. Neglected by her husband, Lee pretends to desert him in order to win him back. This she does, but not before she and Kirkwood have gotten themselves entangled with various and sundry antagonists, including a gang of rumrunners. The film really comes to life during its rescue-at-sea finale. Wallace Beery, a few years away from full stardom, plays the glowering, grimacing villain.
