October 30, 1942 –
Rene Clair’s second Hollywood film, the delightful romantic comedy, I Married A Witch, starring, Veronica Lake, Fredric March, Susan Hayworth, and Robert Benchley, premiered on this date.
Dalton Trumbo was a contributing writer, but left because his interpretation of the novel differed from that of producer Preston Sturges. Sturges also left the production (and declined onscreen credit) because of artistic differences with director René Clair.
