The Model Husband ( or Kann ein Mann sooo treu sein...) is a 1956 West German comedy film directed by Erik Ode and starring Harald Juhnke, Inge Egger and Theo Lingen. It is a remake of the 1937 film The Model Husband, which was itself based on the 1915 Avery Hopwood play Fair and Warmer. The Film Lexicon found it "[s]ignificantly less funny than its predecessor.â As did other commentators.
