Lubitsch reunites Maurice Chevalier and
Jeanette MacDonald, this time as a seemingly blissful couple whose
marriage hits the skids when her flirtatious school chum comes on
to her husband a bit too strong. Necking in the park at nighttime,
husbands and wives having casual dalliances, and a butler telling
his master, "I did so want to see you in tights!": it's
one of Lubitsch's sauciest escapades and his final "pre-Code"
musical. |
