Wissenswertes
This was the first of three movies that Powell and Lombard made together. The other two pictures are Ladies' Man (1931) and Mein Mann Godfrey (1936). They met on the set and married the same year the movie was released, but would be divorced in 1933.

Patzer
At the "Paris" horse race, they wanted to show the horses running clockwise (the opposite direction of US horse racing), so they flipped the negative causing all the numbers on the horses to be reversed in the film. They managed to edit the race to not show the numbers clearly, that is until the end of the race. The number 5 is very clearly backwards in the close-up of the finish.

Zitate
Irene Hoffa: Say, I can remember once I had a good-time Charlie. And it was all fixed up for Michael to walk in and ask this guy what he thought he was doing with his wife. Good for 5,000 bucks this guy was too. All right. Mike is supposed to walk in at 4:00, and sharp 7:00 he shows up. You can't imagine what I went through those three hours.
Fred: Yes, I can.
Irene Hoffa: Well, you're wrong.

Powell and Lombard in early one.

The pre-code where William Powell meets Carole Lombard. story by Herman Mankiewicz. Harry Taylor (Guy Kibbee) is in Paris, and doing things he doesn't want known back in the states. Powell is Trevor.. he pretends to help these americans get out of a jam, but is really blackmailing them. but he falls for Mary (Lombard). and his co-conspirator Irene sees it (Wynne Gibson), and the irony when she says "you've fallen in love with that kid." since Powell really did fall for Lombard. and they got hitched. Some speed bumps in Trevor and Mary's plan for a wedding. Irene throws wrenches into the works, so things aren't what they were just a short time ago. lessons learned. or are they?? It's good. and kind of exotic, since it takes place in a "foreign country." Directed by Dick Wallace. died quite young of a heart attack. was a founding member fo the Directors Guild. probably his best known works are the Girl, the Guy, and the Gob and Bombardier. and Carole Lombard was tragically killed quite young as well.
