Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaTwo scenes featuring Bill Robinson (aka "Bojangles Robinson") were cut from the final version of the film: a solo tap dance performance in black tie by the dancing legend and a duet in beachcomber outfits with Geneva Sawyer. Both scenes are included in a DVD released by Fox as part of "Tyrone Power, Matinee Idol."
- GoofsThe Russian National Anthem that is sung by the waiter is incorrect. For 1937, the year the film is set in, the National Anthem of Russia would have been "Worker's Marseillaise", instead of "God, save the Tsar". Likewise, aristocracy would have been expelled or executed from the fledgling Russian Provisional Government.

Alexis: Love not only comes, it goes. Comes and goes. Comes...
Laura Ridgeway: Yes, I know... like your accent.

Attractive Vehicle
One can see why the studio couldn't help pairing Tyrone Power and Loretta Young - very attractively matched. They were quite taken with their new acquisition of Mr. Power, their answer to Clark Gable, et al, and gave him preferential handling over some of their proved ones, like Ms. Young, who had been a faithful producer for them for some time prior to this. Not only did Mr. Power quickly out-bill her, he also out-earned her, naturally something of an angst to her. He was rather spectacular looking as a young man, but to my mind, did not age as well as some of his counterparts. This is a delightful tale with a lot of fun from several quarters. Helen Westley was my all-around favorite, being, to me, an absolutely diverting woman always in whatever way. Coupled with papa, their segments were among my favorites. Adophe Menjou was faithfully fulfilling with his impish charm here. Very fun film.
