    • Trivia
      This was the first Warner Brothers film to begin with Max Steiner's famous fanfare, which had a bombastic beginning and, by design, no end, as it was meant to transition into the main title of whichever picture it introduced.

    This is a delightful and stylish thirties comedy well worth viewing.
    Claudette Colbert and Charles Boyer make a delightful team in this stylish thirties comedy. This film is creative and amusing in much the same manner as My Man Godfry. For anyone who enjoys black and white films this will be enjoyable. It has something about it of the grace and style of the old Fred Astaire/Ginger Rogers films.
