Naughty Marietta
1935 Nominee
100 Words
Is Maurice Chevalier present? No, it’s the lovely princess who is happy to be single. Desperate to maintain an unmarried name, the lady switches places with one of her servants and is promptly swept off her feet by a remarkable, singing Captain! Wouldn’t you know it, although the Captain tries not to show it, he is quite taken with the lady’s capacity for song? The duo erupts into duets as alias Marietta tries to thwart her Uncle’s plans to marry her off to someone who can’t even carry himself down the stairs (and there is a song from Young Frankenstein).
