Sadly, not one of his best films, this was Lubitsch last before his death
It still has the trademark “Lubitsch touch”- which is mainly sophisticated dialogue and narrative (I think someone orders a martini in every one of his films, and here the two men about to fight spend a long time explaining and discussing the gentlemanly rules) and breezy editing
Strong cast from Jennifer Jones in the title role (She has amazing screen presence here playing an eccentric and spirited woman) to Lawford, Una O’Connor, Haydn, Boyer and Aubrey Smith
