Design for Living	comment	Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Design for Living is a 1933 film about a Love Triangle that ends in a One True Threesome.No, really.This film, directed by Ernst Lubitsch, stars Miriam Hopkins, Gary Cooper, and Fredric March. Gilda Farrell (Hopkins) meets Tom Chambers and George Curtis, (March and Cooper respectively), who are old friends, on a train in France. They all get along together very well, and both Tom and George are attracted to Gilda. She in turn is attracted to both of them as well—but she can't figure out who to choose. They make a "gentleman's agreement" to go on as platonic friends, but when Tom is called away to London to produce his play (he's a playwright), George and Gilda fall into bed together, with Gilda saying "I'm no gentleman!".Later, Tom returns to Paris, and with George away to paint a portrait on commission (George's an artist), Tom and Gilda fall in bed together. The confrontation when George gets back leads Gilda to break up with both of them and enter into a loveless consolation marriage with Max, her boss at the advertising company (she's a commercial artist). Gilda is stuck in a life of boring married tedium when Tom and George, having gotten past their jealousy, come to America and whisk Gilda away to live an exciting polyamorous life in Paris.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Seriously, this all happened in a 1933 film. Even for The Pre-Code Era, Design for Living was unusual. It was based on a play by Noël Coward, but kept little more than the title and the premise (even the names of the characters were changed).
