Fluffy, not very funny bedroom farce which does, however, contain a poetic romantic message: a woman's kiss IS worth dying for. Frank Fay is miscast in the lead, and there are too many cartoonish (and as the film is set in Paris, most of them overtly French-accented as well) supporting characters; Louise Brooks, in one of her first true speaking roles (she was dubbed in the earlier "Prix De Beautè") makes only a cameo appearance. On the other hand, Laura La Plante is charming, spirited and slinky; perhaps if she had gotten the part of Nora Charles in the "Thin Man" series, which she came close to getting, her sound-era career would have taken off. **1/2 out of 4.
