How Long Is “Something to Talk About”?

In this comedy drama, a cheating husband's life becomes a living hell after his spunky wife catches him fooling around. Eddie's wife is Grace, and though she is absent minded and flighty, she is neither a fool, nor a doormat. When she spies him making nice-nice with a sassy blonde, she promptly makes a big scene so the whole town will know that she married a grade A louse. Grace's father Wyly King, the owner of the posh King Farms horse ranch and a Prominent Citizen in town, is not amused when he hears of his daughter's scandalous antics. But his disapproval doesn't stop the vengeful Grace from making more trouble at the Charity League when she publicly announces the names of all the town's philanderers and their girl friends. She later tries to poison Eddie via fish sauce, and while talking with her long-suffering mother, Georgia, accidentally slips and tells her mother about her own husband's extra-marital activities. The normally gentle Georgia is so enraged that she gives pompous, self-righteous Wyly the boot. Grace and Eddie's situation is not helped by her sister who tosses cutting verbal darts at Eddie every time she sees him. But in time, Grace and Eddie begin to come together again and happiness ensues.
