“Perfect Understanding” (1933) is a pre-code romantic comedy that revolves around the marriage of a successful businessman, the sophisticated and independent Jane Carter, and her husband, the somewhat naive and unworldly Dr. Philip Carter.

Their seemingly perfect marriage begins to unravel as their differences in personality and outlook on life become increasingly apparent. Jane is a strong and capable woman, who prefers independence and is involved in her own career and social circles. Philip, on the other hand, is more home-oriented and less engaged with Jane’s world.

Their conflicting desires and views on life lead to misunderstandings and a growing rift in their relationship. They both begin to question the nature of their commitment and whether their marriage can truly survive their disagreements and different priorities.

“Perfect Understanding” is a witty and charming romantic comedy that explores themes of marriage, communication, and the challenges of balancing personal ambitions with the demands of a relationship. The film is a lighthearted yet thought-provoking exploration of the complexities of love and marriage in a changing world.
