MIDNIGHT AFI Fest All-Night Movie Marathon: Comedies of Elegance

Description

American Claudette Colbert arrives in Paris without money or luggage. Wandering into a party, she gets entangled in John Barrymore’s plot to keep a gigolo away from his wife. “An effervescent farce that suggests the films of Lubitsch in its high polish and brittle style,” writes Ted Sennett.
