Why Men Leave Home (1951)

Synopsis of Why Men Leave Home

Legendary movie producer Kroger Babb and prolific House of Dracula director Earl C. Kenton team with talented Hollywood make-up artist Ern Westmore to show how any woman can make herself more beautiful for the man in her life by telling the tale of a young woman who enlists the aid of Westmore in making he mother more attractive. Ginger Waldron was preparing for a screen test when she first made the acquaintance of innovative make-up artist Westmore, and her family life was in shambles. It seems that Waldron's mother had recently suspected her husband of being unfaithful, and now Waldron has asked Westmore for advice on how to save her parent's marriage. When Westmore transforms the average housewife into a glamorous beauty queen worthy of the silver screen with little more than some make-up magic and a stylish new hair-do, her husband John takes one look at his newly enhanced wife and prepares to fulfill his vows with gusto. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
