Claudette Colbert makes no attempt to pretend to be French in this Riviera-set Lubitsch comedy that finds her falling for wealthy Gary Cooper. When she learns he's been married seven times before she freezes him out in order to get the $100,000 per year he promised to pay her if they split. Her reasoning is a little iffy, but the witty script from Charles Brackett and Billy Wilder is more than happy to sacrifice logic for the sake of laughs.
