Carole Lombard made this delightful farce for First National/Warner Brothers, a company not ordinarily known for its lighter comedic fare. This is certainly one of her best, if not least known, films.
French actor Fernand Gravet does a Maurice Chevalier imitation and strikes the perfect balance with Lombard. But the highlight for this writer is Ralph Bellamy's performance as the long- suffering beau that loses the girl in the film's final minutes. The dinner scene where they keep getting interrupted is hilarious. So is the scene where all the women come into Lombard's bedroom to find out about the scandal involving her and the cook (Gravet).
You'd be a fool to miss this film.
