Synopsis
"That Uncertain Feeling" (1941) is a romantic comedy you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Ernst Lubitsch and starring Merle Oberon and Melvyn Douglas. The premise is a hiccup condition that a psychiatrist suspects is really a marriage problem.
Jill Baker's husband Larry is an insurance agent — dependable, self-satisfied, and somewhere between steady and boring. In the psychiatrist's waiting room she meets Alexander Sebastian, a pianist who is difficult, opinionated, and exactly the kind of disruption she wasn't looking for. Melvyn Douglas plays the husband with pitch-perfect self-congratulatory smugness. Burgess Meredith makes Sebastian mildly insufferable in a way that somehow keeps him watchable.
Eighty-four minutes, quick pace, no sentiment wasted. Lubitsch at his most dry. Watch "That Uncertain Feeling" (1941) online on iFILM.
