Movie Info

In this 1935 musical comedy, featuring the glitzy production numbers of Busby Berkeley, Eugene Charlier (Maurice Chevalier) easily impersonates the married yet unfaithful Baron Cassini (also Chevalier) in his act. When the baron leaves for a secret out-of-country meeting, Charlier gets hired to play him again at a state reception. Both the baron and Charlier romantically toy with the baroness (Merle Oberon) and Charlier's lover, Mimi (Ann Sothern), in an amusing game of mistaken identity.

Critic Reviews for Folies Bergère de Paris, (The Man from the Folies Bergere)

All Critics (2) | Fresh (1) | Rotten (1)

On the whole, Folies Bergeres de Paris is a rather minor Chevalier item, with its special entertainment features too thinly spread out to cover the threadbare plot.

Ann Ross
Maclean's Magazine
... it still gives Chevalier a better chance to demonstrate that really magnificent charm of his which has hitherto been so stupidly suppressed and dulled by his Hollywood management.
