Rings on Her Fingers

Rings on Her Fingers is a 1942 American comedy film directed by Rouben Mamoulian for 20th Century Studios and starring Henry Fonda and Gene Tierney.

[2][3] The film is reminiscent of the 1930s screwball comedies starring Carole Lombard and Jean Arthur, and in particular Paramount's The Lady Eve (1941), also featuring Henry Fonda.

[1] Producer Darryl Zanuck informed Mamoulian in writing that he expected the director to create a film that had the look of a high-production "A picture", but rendered on a "B-picture" budget.

According to biographer Kurt Jensen, Mamoulian considered it "the least important of my films" and lacking the stylistic elements characteristic of his oeuvre.

[11]Spergal adds, "Mamoulian was fortunate in having a true ensemble of accomplished actors who were able to bring their abilities to the film," among these, Fonda, Tierney, Byington and Cregar.
