[@kennethlongsr4009]

Loved this movie, we couldn't take our eyes off the screen. Luckily our dog has a large bladder. Its a true classic....and you know what, there was no nudity, no foul language, no violence, and yet after 70 years it's still a great movie and we loved it.

[@oilhammer04]

How refreshing to see an old gem like this. So many modern movie makers should try to create such beauty.

[@jacquelinejanz8466]

This was so much fun! Is anyone else happy? Guess that’s love! ♥️

[@bluefish4580]

What a great film. Danielle is a wonderful actress. I feel great after watching this..

[@bbobrm]

I loved it ! This is the era where most of the movies made were for adult audiences.No special effects , just great acting , sets with a lovely flow. Thank you so much , Silver Screen Classics , for posting this movie here.

[@tommoncrieff1154]

Danielle Darrieux lived on until just two years ago, passing in October 2017 aged 100 years old. The combination of her and Douglas Fairbanks Jr is a pure joy - they are two of the best-looking and most effortlessly charming, well-mannered stars ever. Meanwhile the supporting cast are in danger of running off with every scene, they are all so sparkling with the lines and gags. Director Henry Koster brilliantly handles the script. The scenes in the country house with the log basket and then the comedy turn with the window, the move into real poignancy followed by the final log basket joke are a masterclass in editing, timing and how to prep an audience. We don't have comedy films that sparkle or stars that charm like this anymore, more's the pity.

[@dongaetano3687]

Well said Tom as was Gertjan's just above yours as I write this. Looked her up myself and glad she had a long life. Her charm and guilt in her dishonesty was beautifully played and she remained delightful in all her comedic spots as well as genuinely humorous. Smitten. Agree, the entire cast was superb and DF Jr a display of class and elegance clothed in real likable, humanity. Nice comment.

I Googled Danielle Darrieux out of curiosity because of your comment. She was more beautiful with age and very well regarded.

Another great gem that's way better than anything that's shown today.

[@sparx180]

Douglas Fairbanks was so handsome and he dressed like a real gentleman, which I am sure he was throughout the remainder of his life. I remember him doing an interview quite some time ago. He aged very well, still handsome, well dressed.

[@GertjanZwiggelaar-mo4tz]

A totally wonderful storyline and superb acting in lovely costumes. Old Hollywood was so much finer back in the 'old days'. Danielle Darrieux is so completely charming. To think that all of these marvellous people are already long gone but have left us such a splendid legacy of superlative entertainment is really something to think about. If it wasn't for the invention of celluloid photographic film we would not have these marvels. Thanks to Silver Screen Classics for posting this gem. Truly worth your time to view.

Loved this and love all the great romantic comedies of the 1930s...my late parent's era! Fairbanks was so handsome as well as talented and one snappy dresser! Even on the late great Johnny Carson's show, he would wear a red carnation in his lapel like my husband's grandfather would always do. Men knew how to really dress with real class back in the day! Danielle was lovely! This retired NY fashion illustrator loved the costumes/fashions of the 1930s, also very classy and gorgeous! Movies like this inspired me to study the history of costume and to become a fashion illustrator! Thanks for sharing~

[@Jason-ib4fk]

Good for you! Sounds like a very interesting career! I bet you have some stories! I watch movies of this age and as well love the classy outfits. Everyone looks so dapper and great! The women and men both are so much more attractive in them too! Even when you didn't live that far back it gives you a nostalgia and longing for such an age that's almost inexplicable! :) Btw, I was watching a video yesterday about, Mr. Plunkett, the costume designer for "Gone With the Wind" and the meaning of the colors of Scarlet's (Vivien Leigh's of course) dresses throughout the film.

[@magicknight13]

Wow that's fascinating! What an amazing career. Fashion is truly the gift that keeps on giving!

[@moonoggin]

Haven't watched a movie in forever that I just did not want it to end. Brilliantly a masterpiece!! Comedy with a twinge of anger and true love reigns. These 2 keep you hopping in suspense throughout. The clothes in this movie are so elegant. The posture perfecto in every character!! A crystal of a gem from start to finish. Friends who support you in every way. They are like a warm & humorous family.

OMG! There is no french cinema without mentioning the great Danielle Darrieux! Check out her movies with Henri Decoin, Jacques Demy, Claude Autant Lara, Julien Duvivier and, above all, the three masterpieces she made with Max Ophüls. She also appeared a few more times in english speaking films, such as Rich, young and pretty (1951), 5 fingers (1952), which was directed by Mankiewicz and The Greengage summer (1961).

I wonder if there really were a lot of men and women in the Depression passing themselves off as wealthy and/or titled. They surely made a lot of movies with that plot in the 1930s. Michael Romanoff, born Hershel Geguzin, was very successful at promoting himself into the restaurant business as Auer's character is trying to achieve in this movie.

[@vcoonrod]

Great observation!

[@julijakeit]

it doesn;t have to be realistic. It's an escapism movie to help relax and dream about better life during harsh times. and to be fair, women aiming to marry wealthy men pass off as richer than they actually are to appear less desperate than they are even today.

Love all those 'Hollywood Regency' curtains! And the giant brackets in the hunting lodge were pretty amazing, too. Lots of other useful design bits in this movie....

[@653j521]

Bunny Biedenharn I like the art deco touches and other design aspects but that lodge was seriously over-built. Why would they want supports that mammoth?

[@gardensofthegods]

Oh I love the art deco touches too but I really do think that Cottage was really cool I love the way it looked .

[@grittykitty50]

A plush, furnished suite in a top notch hotel for $60 a day! Unbelievable!

[@gardensofthegods]

But you have to realize that was 1938... according to the inflation calculator that was equal to $1,780 a year ago..... it's possible it could be a little bit less but $60 was a lot of money in 1938... go see what a whole paycheck was back in those days and it's shocking ... if you find out what a gallon of milk or loaf of bread or what it cost to go to the movies back then was compared to today you will be surprised

[@gardensofthegods]

If you look at some of the tables for what the rates were... believe it or not in 1935 the yearly average salary and I'm talkin for the whole year was about $484 per person ! 10 years later in 1945 it was about $1,300 a year... but remember everything was cheaper... I had a relative who bought a decent-sized 3 bedroom townhouse in Philadelphia suburbs in1948 for $9,000 ... if you would just for today it is worth about $ 150,000 .00 . That would be like you buying a house today for 200,000 and somebody telling you that it will eventually be worth 1 and a half million . I have a relative who died at the age of 96 this past year and she used to talk about when a loaf of bread was 5 cents and getting into the movies was also 5 cents .

[@gardensofthegods]

@Piatequila yeah KZbin is weird but maybe they didn't even see it. But what blows my mind is how often people never adjust for inflation.... often even in historical programs and documentaries . For example I've seen things like them talking about a woman getting a trust of 400 English Pounds a year a year.... but maybe it was the year 1740 and that would have equaled maybe a couple hundred thousand a year but they don't say this.... so a lot of uneducated people watching or actually thinking she got 400 pounds a year .

Danielle Darrieux was french . One of our biggest stars. The biggest in the 30's and 40's and still a big one until much later. An uninterrupted 80 years career , the longest in france from her first film in 1931 aged 14 to her last in 2010 aged 93. She died in 2017 aged 100.
