Claudette Colbert stars as a down-on-her-luck showgirl who travels to Paris with dreams of finding a wealthy suitor.  She draws the affections of a Hungarian cabdriver (Ameche) but quickly abandons him when she catches the eye of a scheming aristocrat (Barrymore). Despite tensions between director Leisen and screenwriters Wilder and Charles Brackett, the film holds up with the great screen comedies of the 1930s thanks to its witty and sarcastic script and standout performances from the three lead actors.
