• 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
  • Not in the top 10 of 1946 but in my archives
  • Recommend
