Trivia:
Before being put on suspension, Marilyn Monroe was 20th Century-Fox's original choice for the role of Evelyn Nesbit. She turned this film and a forthcoming adaptation of the then-current Broadway musical 'The Girl in Pink Tights' (which was to co-star Dan Dailey and 'Mitzi Gaynor') and was put on suspension. Sheree North was then announced as her replacement for both films until Joan Collins was eventually cast as Nesbit. 'Girl in Pink Tights' was eventually abandoned.

Love this movie. Joan Collins was perfect for the part.
I discovered it is on Satellite Oct 2, 2004 on the TRUE station. I am going to finally record it. I don't know why this movie isn't out on DVD or Video.
Yes, I agree with the other assessment of Ray Milland but Joan sparkles in the coquette role period piece.
This movie is one of those forgotten pieces of romantic history. Great costumes and entertaining if you like the actors. Not filmed to be masterpiece,just entertainment. There used to be some members notes in the message center about looking for this movie but I see nothing now. Hope some of you out there can catch this movie on Oct 2nd.If not you might keep checking because if it is on once it will be on again.
