michael d 12/14/2021 Maurice Chevalier charms America and gets the bosses daughter in the early sound rom-com featuring a few of his songs. Not as polished as his early work with Lubitsch and Maoulin, Chevalier still conveys his irresistible charm battling primitive early sound while exhibiting his lush accent.
