    One of the Matrix sequels? haven't seen them but I recall the home base was called Jericho.

    Edit: just so you know this isn't the same as when the guy looked it up. I HAVEN'T searched. Just guessing.

    Further edit: I suddenly realised the home base was called Zion. So obviously wrong.

    It probably isn't this one either, but I don't know my Bible influenced movies that well.

    No to all. None of these movies are old enough.

    The Walls of Jericho was a metaphor for a blanket in the movie.

    A man and a woman are lying in their beds in two separate but adjacent rooms. Both are hoping that the door between the two rooms will be opened by the wind.

    Would this be a Humphrey Bogart or Rita Hayworth pic? My knowledge of that sort of film is almost zip. :(

    Neither Humphrey Bogart or Rita Hayworth.
    But the time is almost right.

    Some more hints seem to be necessary ;)

    Man and woman are a couple whose divorce will take effect at midnight.
    Both leads belonged to the biggest stars of their time. Though they shared a total of 7 Oscar nominations between them - one of it for this movie - neither has won it ever.

    No. Older. 'High Society' is a remake of a movie which is a little younger than the sought-after movie.
    And all three leads in High Society have each won an Oscar in their career.


    Some more hints:
    A foxterrier plays a quite important part in this movie.
    And a cuckoo clock is used at the end of the scene to tell "things" which were forbidden to show in movies under the 'Hayes code' ;)

    That dog was in a boatload of movies: Bringing Up Baby, The Thin Man (all of them, I think), and The Awful Truth.

    @T2Bruno

    Since the sought-after movie is in your list and the rest would be guesswork we should finish it here.
    It's 'The Awful Truth', one of the funniest screwball comedies ever.

    Your turn.
