“The impossible delicacy of Ernst Lubitsch’s way with comedy shouldn’t distract from how his pitch-perfect avoidance of sentiment could inform his infrequent dramas… Perhaps the most neglected of Lubitsch’s great films.”
 Ben Kenigsberg, The New York Times

“The best talking picture that has yet been seen and heard.”
– Robert E. Sherwood
