For Better, for Worse (1955)

Plot Summary

When Tony Howard proposes to Anne Purves in the cinema, he is readily accepted. On returning home they break the news to the surprised Mrs. Purves who, being a placid woman, decides she likes young Tony and pledges her support when the news is broken to her husband. Mr. Purves returns home to find his daughter in the arms of a strange young man. He listens patiently to Tony when he asks for his daughter's hand. Receiving far from satisfactory answers to the usual father-in-law questions, he agrees to the marriage on the condition that Tony finds a job and a flat.
