Okay. Since you say that it's the 50's, then it's "High Society"? The remake of "The Philadelphia Story"?

You got it, eoe. It was sort of a tie-in to Country Girl. (Bing Crosby).

Your turn.

They have made so many different versions of that same story.

I saw a TV version, (Elizabeth Montgomery?) but that will always be Bette Davis' movie to me.

Late thirties

The man she loves is stricken with a disease. She convinces his wife it would be better if she accompanied him to the quarantined island where they will probably both die. The wife remains at home.

Yes, the TV version had Elizabeth Montgomery. There is also another movie version with Susan Hayward called Stolen Hours (1963) that's fairly good.

Now I've got to mull over your clue. Confused

Girlfriend! I just saw this, the first time in years and years, on Sunday. I laughed until I cried, too tickled by Miss Julie's antics. I could never get over how, in the end, she talked that woman right out of her man!!

We're talking "Jezebel".

We sure are, eoe. Jezebel and her red dress. Laughing

I'm really in the dark on this one. I'll take a wild guess, just to keep things moving.

Not so in the dark. Not such a wild guess.
"The Thrill of it All" is correct.
Your turn.
