Synopsis

In Vienna, Doctor Franz Braun is happily married to Charlotte, while Professor Josef Stock is unhappily married to Mizzi, Charlotte’s best friend. Mizzi decides to chase Braun, while Braun’s business partner is hoping for an affair with a disconsolate Charlotte. Then things really get complicated…

MUBI's take

Ernst Lubitsch is most famous today for his sound comedies, but his wit was as visual as it was verbal, and he was one of the silent era’s hottest directors. This comedy, his first after being scooped up by Warner Bros., is a highlight, a turning point, and a masterclass of refined naughtiness.
