I do find him very entertaining in romantic comedies of this era, though. I think him not being particularly desirable enhances the humour for me 😂

"Do you play?"
"Yes."
"'Etude for Five Fingers.' 'Cloister Bells'? 'Maiden's Prayer.' Let me see your underwear ... Cloister bells."

So, it seems like “Flausenthurm” might translate to “Tower of Nonsense.” #TheSmilingLieutenant #tcmparty

Highlighted portion: “Once an entire set had to be rebuilt so she would not have to show her right side, resulting in some cameraman calling the right side of her face “the dark side of the moon.’”
She seemed to continue replicating her hairstyle in her later years.
This conversation made me look this up. Love the highlighted tidbit (from IMDb)

Miriam Hopkins is so pitch perfect in this. Hilarious and beautifully poignant at the same time 😂❤️

After getting married I forgot to have someone declare our royal bedchamber. I think we winked though. #TheSmilingLieutenant #TCMParty

Maurice Chevalier was a model for Pepe Le Pew, but we also have to acknowledge Charles Boyer as a major influence, specifically his performance as Pepe le Moko in #Algiers

I went to a photography exhibit at MOMA a couple months ago, and this shot gave me pause. Does anyone recognize the woman on the left as Claudette Colbert (or anyone else)? I never would have thought it to be her, if it wasn’t labelled as such.

Well, this young Maurice Chevalier was the model for Pepe Le Pew, so it’s little wonder that he thinks highly of himself. #TheSmilingLieutenant #tcmparty

The young Maurice Chevalier sounds a lot like Jacques Pepin. I keep expecting him to tell me how to make skate wing meunière or something. #TheSmilingLieutenant #tcmparty
