  1. This was fun! She's delightful, he's dashing, and the supporting cast is just nutty enough, but still believable.

  2. Douglas Fairbanks and Danielle Darrieux are pretty good in this oldie but goodie comedy about a French woman trying to be a model and getting mixed up with a guy in the modeling agency-from there it’s one thing after another-and the laughs go way outta hand-This is GREAT to WATCH! 😂😂😂😂😂
