Based on James Thurber's witty short story, The Battle of the Sexes (1959) is a brisk British comedy that lampoons mid-century marriage. A clever husband and a perceptive wife navigate a maze of domestic quirks, social rules, and miscommunications, sparking a playful battle of wits that escalates into farcical situations. Peter Sellers, Constance Cummings, Robert Morley and Donald Pleasence deliver sharp, character-driven performances under Charles Crichton's brisk direction.
