"The Gay Divorcee" is a 1934 musical romantic comedy film directed by Mark Sandrich and starring Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. The film revolves around the story of Mimi Glossop (Ginger Rogers), a young woman trapped in a loveless marriage and desperately seeking a divorce.
Mimi's overbearing Aunt Hortense (Alice Brady) and her bumbling lawyer Egbert (Edward Everett Horton) decide to employ the services of a professional correspondent to help Mimi obtain a divorce. They hire the smooth-talking Guy Holden (Fred Astaire) as the correspondent and instruct him to pose as Mimi's lover, creating the illusion of an adulterous affair.
Unaware of the true nature of his role, Guy genuinely falls in love with Mimi during their interactions. He believes that Mimi reciprocates his feelings because she misunderstands his genuine interest as part of the act. Complications arise when Guy unintentionally gives Mimi the prearranged code phrase, making her think he is the hired correspondent.
As the charade continues, Mimi and Guy face a series of humorous misunderstandings and mix-ups. They find themselves entangled in a web of mistaken identities and secret rendezvous. Along the way, their relationship grows deeper, fueling their mutual attraction.
However, their path to happiness is hindered by various obstacles, including the persistent interference of Mimi's Aunt Hortense and the relentless pursuit of the actual correspondent, Rodolfo Tonetti (Erik Rhodes). Tonetti, who initially posed as Mimi's lover, becomes jealous of Guy and is determined to expose the truth.
Amidst song and dance numbers, witty banter, and dazzling Fred Astaire-Ginger Rogers choreography, the plot thickens as Mimi and Guy must navigate the complexities of mistaken identities and Aunt Hortense's misguided efforts to salvage the situation. Ultimately, true love triumphs as Mimi and Guy discover their feelings are genuine and pursue a life together, leaving their tumultuous past behind.
