They All Laughed
Some of them promised they'd never fall in love.
Directed by Peter Bogdanovich
Produced by Time Life Films, Moon Pictures
A romantic comedy about private detectives who fall for the very women they're hired to surveil, built on charm, mistaken identities, and the irony of professional skeptics surrendering to love.
New York's Odyssey Detective Agency is hired by two different clients to follow two women suspected of infidelity. Ladies' man John Russo trails Angela Niotes, the elegant wife of a wealthy Italian industrialist, while Charles Rutledge and Arthur Brodsky follow Dolores Martin, the beautiful young wife of a jealous husband. Their respective cases are complicated when John falls for Angela, and Charles falls for Dolores.
