Une belle aventurière du siècle dernier fraichement débarquée à la Nouvelle-Orléans part à la recherche d'hommes beaux et riches. Elle trouve son bonheur en la personne d'un banquier avec lequel elle décide de convoler en justes noces. Oui mais voilà, elle est loin d’être insensible au charme d'un beau marin, capitaine d'un vieux rafiot. Unique film d'aventure de René Clair dans lequel il composa un rôle sur mesure pour Marlène.

It was war time. Let's face it. Back then, more than ever, Europeans were forced to flee to Hollywood instead of worshiping it. One such example is the fate of René Clair, who, though he greeted freedom in his 31st year, did not know in the next decade whether he could manage a false double role for Marlene in a fairy tale story of one-liners. On the other hand, every significant change was a benefit for Marlene, because on such a large surface she could once again show that she can play roles completely different than just various singers. In this film, she actually played just one of the many variations of her own nature, which had fully erupted by the time she became a grandmother, and the audience unknowingly got a kick out of this even before she turned 40. It's not a perfect film, it's quite adorned, but a true Dietrichophile can certainly and unerringly handle it. ;)
