Affectionately Yours is a 1941 American romantic comedy film directed by Lloyd Bacon and starring Merle Oberon, Dennis Morgan, and Rita Hayworth.

Plot

In this comedic film, renowned journalist Dennis Morgan endeavors to mend his relationship with his former wife, played by Merle Oberon. Dissatisfied with her husband's constant travel due to his job as a correspondent, Oberon's character travels to Reno, where she secures a divorce. While on a foreign assignment, Morgan becomes aware of their marriage's dissolution and becomes resolute in mending their relationship. Upon his return to the United States, he discovers she is now engaged to a character portrayed by Ralph Bellamy, a competing romantic interest. Simultaneously, Rita Hayworth, playing the role of a fellow journalist enamored with Morgan, pursues his affection. As is common in films of this kind, Oberon and Morgan's characters ultimately rediscover their past love.[1]
