    In literature which soldier's bride-to-be turns up at the wrong church?

    Question #21896. Asked by Cobbystock. (Aug 27 02 12:57 PM)

    Look up 'Far from the Maddening Crowd' - a book and a film. You will find the answer there. Good luck.

    That's MADDING not Maddening. Maddening enough if you have to study it, I grant you, but Madding means 'frenzied' whereas Maddening means 'to drive mad'. (There is a definition whereby they are equated, but 'maddening crowd' is not that sense, and is a quote from Gray.)

    That would be ' 'madding crowd' is a quote from Gray '. Bah.

    Which soldier's bride-to-be (in literature) disastrously turns up at the wrong church?

    This old movie or show has stumped our family for years. It is about a guy that is trying to date a lady and she has a large poodle. In part of the show, the poodle yelps and puts up one paw like the man kicked him and the lady gets mad and when she turns her back the poodle jumps high in the air, and when she turns back the poodle holds up the wrong paw. The man says, "Look it was the other paw," and the dog switches paws. That's all we can remember. It could be a black and white show or color. We have asked many people if they have seen it but with no luck, what movie is it?
