Marriage Bed began life as a Canadian made-for-TV movie. Described as "a comedy/drama about the perils of marriage", the film stars Linda Griffiths as a young bride. Griffiths' hubby Layne Coleman picks the worst possible time to walk out: the night before Christmas. R. H. Thompson costars in this formulaic concoctions.
Marriage Bed made its US debut over the Lifetime Cable service in November of 1987. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
