Curiosidades
During a recent showing on TCM, it was stated that Jeanette MacDonald and Maurice Chevalier did not get along on this film. He called her a "prude" and she called him "a bottom pincher". Their relationship had been deteriorating for some time, and this was the last film they appeared in together.

Pifias
When Sonia tears off a calendar sheet, it reads "Thursday, May III, 1885". However, May 3, 1885 was actually a Sunday.

Citas
Sonia: Girls, the gentleman wants to be entertained.
[to Danilo]
Sonia: Here they are. All your little tonights. And not a tomorrow among them.

Versiones alternativas

Lubitsch and Lehar

MGM's second version of 'The Merry Widow', this time using the music of Lehar's operetta and starring Jeanette MacDonald and Maurice Chevalier in the roles previously filled by Mae Murray and John Gilbert in the silent movie.

Jeanette MacDonald is a revelation here if you've only seen her in the films which teamed her with Nelson Eddy from 1935 and 1942. Her Sonia is sparky, flirty, and naughty, and naturally in beautiful voice as ever. Maurice Chevalier brings his considerable Gallic charm to the role of Count Danillo, while familiar character faces of the period flesh out the supporting cast (Edward Everett Horton, Donald Meek, Una Merkel, Sterling Holloway).

The film looks sumptuous, with beautiful sets and striking black and white photography. Definitely one of the key musicals of the 1930s.
