My rating: 2.5 stars out of 4

Entertaining fluff with Alfred Lunt a jealous thespian who dons the disguise of a Russian soldier to test his wife's faithfulness. Lynn Fontanne stutters her way through a lackluster performance as the wife, but Lunt's over-the-top Russian is often hilarious. Based on a Ferenc Molnar play, the film retains a stage bound feel.
