Leftover Ladies

The Leftover Ladies are Patricia (Claudia Dell) and Amy (Dorothy Revier), recently divorced from their husbands Ronny (Walter Byron) and Jerry (Alan Mowbray). Seeking to find more exciting mates, the ladies end up with one another’s ex-husbands. Things end happily for Patricia and Ronny thanks to the intervention of their child, but the relationship between Amy and Jerry sours further thanks to the twin bugaboos of alcohol and depression. Marjorie Rambeau dominates the proceedings as a once-great theatrical diva who has drowned her career in booze. Leftover Ladies was based on a novel by Ursula Parrott, a specialist in divorce dramas.
