7/10
minor but amusing comedy

Warning: Spoilers
According to the great theatre-going public, the Newberry's marriage is one long, radiant honeymoon. Sadly, in private these two famous thespians spend most of their time needling and belittling each other. Their manager, who has grown tired of their quarreling, urges them to find a good psychiatrist. Both Mr. And Mrs. Newberry follow his advice, but not together...

"The Gay Intruders" is a minor but merry comedy that pokes fun at two different professions, to wit acting and psychiatry. The movie also pokes fun at the married state, which, in life, can hardly be maintained without at least some pretending and dissembling.

"The Gay Intruders" boasts lively performances and, especially, a marvelously funny dialogue full of zingers and cutting repartee. The whole isn't particularly deep - for instance, don't expect any profound insights about the futility of mutual destruction - but it skips along nicely. It is also too short to outstay its welcome.

Cheered me up nicely.
