About this Item
In ?One Hour With You? (1932), a musical comedy directed by Ernst Lubitsch with the assistance of George Cukor, the stars Maurice Chevalier and Jeanette MacDonald play a married couple, Andre and Colette, who are first seen canoodling in a park ? a place regularly reserved for illicit lovers. Colette?s bestie, a bona fide homewrecker named Mitzi (a delightfully lusty Genevieve Tobin), takes a liking to Andre, prompting a night of infidelity from both sides that is conclusively brushed under the rug when the couple decide they love each other too much to let such trivial pursuits ruin them. As for Mitzi, she responds to her own husband?s divorce request with suave nonchalance, driving off with a risqué self-portrait in tow. Particularly touching are the moments when women stand up in the face of gendered moralizing. Approx. 21x26.5 inches. Presents well, nice condition. Seller Inventory # s23
