Curiosidades
Although credited to Fortunio Bonanova, the orchestra conductor is played by George Balanchine, who at the time was married to Vera Zorina.

Pifias
At the end of the Swan Lake ballet, the Prince wades into the pond. He stands in water almost up to his knees. Yet when he comes out for the curtain call immediately after, his legs are dry.

Countess Tanya Vronsky: Oh. I've made a terrible mistake
Herr Protz: Oh, that's alright.
Countess Tanya Vronsky: I don't know what to say

Amiable

A fun little adventure/noir effort that boasts a wonderful comedic double act from von Stroheim and Lorre as a pair of conniving crooks and con men. The main tale is about the beautiful Vera Zorina who starts out as an accomplice before going straight when she falls for the youthful Richard Greene. It's an involved little story, light and frothy, and certainly an amiable watch.
