The Big Hangover is a 1950 comedy film released by MGM. The film starred Van Johnson and Elizabeth Taylor and was written and directed by Norman Krasna. Supporting players include Percy Waram, Fay Holden, Leon Ames, Edgar Buchanan, Selena Royle, Gene Lockhart, and Rosemary DeCamp. The Big Hangover was one of Elizabeth Taylor's first films to feature her in a "adult character," the first being the 1949 British thriller Conspirator. Despite being released with high hopes, The Big Hangover was a critical and box-office disappointment. Home video releases are scarce in any format, as the movie remains largely unknown.
