Emmy: Funny he never comes to the theatre at night. I wonder where he goes from 9.00 to 11.00?
Mitzi Hansen: I'm not the slightest bit interested, and after all what can anyone possibly do in that time?
Emmy: Well, I know a man who can do a lot in fifteen minutes.
Mitzi Hansen: Is that how you got that necklace?

Commentaire à la une
Bebe Daniels plays Mitzi Hansen, a successful singer and stage performer. She has a retinue of three, including Claude Hulbert, quite amusing in his inimitable fashion and Lester Matthews, soon to make a permanent move to Hollywood, but quite what they're doing there is never made clear, perhaps just hangers-on. Their fawning is to no avail as she becomes intrigued with Victor Varconi, who becomes her secretary.
Billed as a musical on a recent DVD release, this is more accurately a romantic comedy with musical interludes. The dialogue is occasionally slightly saucy for the era, as is a scene where Bebe pretends she's in a clinch with another man in her bedroom, to try and get a reaction from Varconi and a song called I'm For Sale, sung by the attractive Iris Ashley. There are a couple of compositions by Robert Stolz, one sung by Walter Widdop, a leading English tenor of the day and Stolz's fellow Austrian, director Paul Stein, brings a hint of middle Europe to the proceedings, including a marionette show. This is very much Bebe Daniels' film though, and on this showing it's a shame her future movies were so few and far between.
