An enchanting rendezvous between the drawing room wit of Noel Coward and the delicate sang-froid of the Lubitsch touch. Despite a glib about preferring Paramount Paris to the real thing, which other Hollywood director could render gay Paris with such joie de vivre? And what s more French than a ménage à trois?

Regretting that unlike hats, she cannot try them before she buys them, they make a gentleman s agreement of dating without sex. But a woman is not a gentleman - une femme est une femme... Sounds familiar? That s where Truffaut got his idea for Jules et Jim.
