Jeanette MacDonald is Sonia, a bubbly widow who owns 52% of every cow and cowtown in the tiny European country of Marshovia. When she relocates to glittery Paris, suave ladies' man Captain Danilo (Maurice Chevalier) sets out in hot pursuit. His mission: avert his homeland's financial ruin by bringing Sonia back on the wings of love. But hang on tight, Danilo. Love always flies a delirious course when legendary director Ernst Lubitsch, known for sophisticated wit and a style affectionately dubbed as "the Lubitsch touch" is at the helm. A frothy, high-spirited gem based on Franz Lehar's operetta, The Merry Widow set the standard for musicals to come. And it confirmed what MGM's top brass already knew: Jeanette MacDoanld was a major star.
So enjoy the rapturous music, the sparkling dialogue and the swirling "Merry Widow Waltz." You'll have to look far and wide for a better comic operetta than this.
Directed By Ernst Lubitsch
Starring Maurice Chevalier, Jeanette MacDonald, Edward Everett Horton

Pretty awesome really. Those were the days BEFORE everything could be digitally enhanced or reproduced so all of those dancers were real and synchronized and not just something digitally repeated to fool the eye!!

LOL! Every time they try to be alone, 500 other couples come dancing in.

And how many of those gowns did the MGM wardrobe department have to make? All exactly the same. Nothing would have come out of stock for this...all specially made gowns. Adrian, designer, I'm sure.

Maravillosa puesta en escena, magistral Lubich en elegancia, clase y por supuesto gran estilo, tengo la suerte de haber visto y grabado el maravilloso ciclo que TVE en la 2 dedicó hace muchos años y quedé impastado. Mi película favorita es "The Shop Around the Corner"(El bazar de las Sorpresas" de 1940 por nombrar una.🎥🎥🎥🎥🎥🎥

FANTASTIC - not like the crap produced today. I would have been at 'home' back then. Oh for a 'hundred years' in retrospect!

Courtney Williams It’s not a matter of “deal with it.” It’s the appreciation and admiration for the ingenuity, skill, and talent of the people who could create like this. You must be very young. If not in years, in maturity.
