Once again Maurice Chevalier rescues the princess from an overturned carriage, tips his straw hat far to one-side, sings songs which are relayed endlessly by the other members of the cast, and in the end marries the princess, as dukes and dowager queens drop away in dead faints. Maurice is a tailor this time and the princess, Jeanette MacDonald, is only a relic French one. The plot is the usual one and the actor is the same, with the varnish and the pronunciation only slightly marred by rough American usage.

Although the picture seems to have been thrown together in rather short order and one suspects the producers of raiding the morgue freely for shots from Chevalier's earlier films, there are several good scenes; for instance the picture of Paris awakening, of the princess standing on the tracks to stop a train, and of Maurice breaking up the duke's hunt by entertaining the stag at luncheon.

The other picture at the University, called "Bird of Paradise", is just an other story of a Princeton boy going active in the South Seas and the arms of Doleres Del Rto. Joel McCrea and the chieftain's daughter run off in their B. V. D.'s and an outboard came to build houses and pick cocoa nuts on a private little Island. Paradise becomes promptly Lost through the intervention of Mount Pelee and the young lady's tribe. Mr. McCrea succeeds in straddling the smoking chasm which opens up beneath his fact, and trusty American fides prevent them from becoming release fodder for Mount Pelee. J.J.T.Jr.
