For anyone who enjoys musicals this is a must-see. It's more like an operetta than a big, splashy MGM musical. The script is precise and witty. The songs amplify and reveal character. Maurice Chevalier is just right as the tailor who is mistaken for a nobleman. Jeannette McDonald is warm and believable. The maiden-aunt chorus is hilarious. They don't get much better than this.
score 10/10
