Universal Pictures
Directed by Rene Clair
My rating: 1.5 stars out of 4

(DVD, Universal)
Socialite Dietrich flirts with wealthy Roland Young for his money but really is after sailor Bruce Cabot. She concocts an alter identity to have it both ways: one Dietrich has straight bangs and the other curly. This leads to various comic situations, none of which are very funny. When her shenanigans are revealed, she must choose between the two men. Rene Clair's American debut is miles away from his earlier French masterpieces: ridden with cliches and burdened by a low budget, simply awful.
