While it may not be quite on the same level as his most widely acknowledged classics, it&#8217;s consistently amusing, and full of exactly the kind of boldly humorous (and often audaciously physical) sight gags one comes to expect from Keaton. Here, he plays a variation on all the seemingly-milquetoast characters he embodied in previous features &#8212; a man pining for a beautiful woman who at first is out of his reach, but eventually (yes, there&#8217;s always a happy ending) comes to realize what a loyal and brave catch he is. The most memorable scenes in this particular flick are probably Keaton&#8217;s bungled attempt to stand-in for a missing actor in Sebastian&#8217;s play, and his attempt to get his soused new wife-in-name-only into bed &#8212; but plenty of others are chuckle-worthy as well. Keaton fans won&#8217;t be disappointed in the slightest. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Redeeming Qualities and Moments: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Plenty of amusing gags<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Spite-Marriage-Audience.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Spite-Marriage-Audience.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"528\" height=\"384\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-24190\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Spite-Marriage-Audience.png 528w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Spite-Marriage-Audience-128x93.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Spite-Marriage-Audience-300x218.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 528px) 100vw, 528px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Spite-Marriage-Beard.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Spite-Marriage-Beard.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"528\" height=\"384\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-24191\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Spite-Marriage-Beard.png 528w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Spite-Marriage-Beard-128x93.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Spite-Marriage-Beard-300x218.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 528px) 100vw, 528px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Spite-Marriage-Show.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Spite-Marriage-Show.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"528\" height=\"384\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-24189\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Spite-Marriage-Show.png 528w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Spite-Marriage-Show-128x93.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Spite-Marriage-Show-300x218.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 528px) 100vw, 528px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Spite-Marriage-Drunken-Bride.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Spite-Marriage-Drunken-Bride.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"528\" height=\"384\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-24194\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Spite-Marriage-Drunken-Bride.png 528w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Spite-Marriage-Drunken-Bride-128x93.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Spite-Marriage-Drunken-Bride-300x218.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 528px) 100vw, 528px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Spite-Marriage-Boat-Sails.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Spite-Marriage-Boat-Sails.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"528\" height=\"384\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-24193\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Spite-Marriage-Boat-Sails.png 528w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Spite-Marriage-Boat-Sails-128x93.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Spite-Marriage-Boat-Sails-300x218.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 528px) 100vw, 528px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Spite-Marriage-Boat-Fight.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Spite-Marriage-Boat-Fight.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"528\" height=\"384\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-24192\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Spite-Marriage-Boat-Fight.png 528w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Spite-Marriage-Boat-Fight-128x93.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Spite-Marriage-Boat-Fight-300x218.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 528px) 100vw, 528px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Must See?
