Trivia
Originally planned as a vehicle for Jeanette MacDonald 10 years earlier, but the somewhat racy content put the musical on hold at MGM, until it was a hit on Broadway in 1938.

Goofs
When the count (Nelson Eddy) removes the feathers from his wife's new hat, the feathers are a different type and color, and attached differently, from the feathers on the hat shown to his wife (Jeanette MacDonald) seconds before.

Such a cute movie...

I know a lot of people don't like this movie, but I just think it is adorable. There's not much I can say, but the movie is a feel-good movie I guess. The songs are beautiful, the costumes are beautiful, the voices are beautiful, and there are a lot of funny lines in the movie, especially as Briggitta learns about the do's and don't's of society. If you like musicals, I'd say you'd like this one!
