Cast

Production

The original title of this film was They Had to Get Married. However, the Hays Office disapproved of this title, and requested the addition of the word "just".[3] They Just Had to Get Married was the third film version of Cyril Harcourt's 1914 play, A Pair of Silk Stockings. The first two were both silent films: a 1918 Lewis J. Selznick presentation also called A Pair of Silk Stockings,[6] and a 1927 Universal film Silk Stockings.[7] These films are unrelated to the 1957 film, Silk Stockings, a musical remake of Ninotchka (1939).[3]

The film premiered in San Diego, California on December 22, 1932, and went into general American release on January 5, 1933.[8]

Male intrasexual competition

Male-male intrasexual competition occurs when two males of the same species compete for the opportunity to mate with a female.

Larger males tend to win male-male conflicts due to their sheer strength and ability to ward off other males from taking over their females. For in...
