These three stars along with Rosemary DeCamp and Walter Abel in lesser roles make this melodrama believable and one of the best for Paramount Studios in 1941.Boyer, a Mexican gigolo, in an attempt to gain access to United States by way of marraige, weds Olivia, a school teacher, visiting the Mexican border town with a group of school boys, in a quick and sudden ceremony. Paulette, once Boyer’s partner on the professional dance floor, attempts to win him back once he gains entrance to good old USA. However, as in most melodramas, the hero has an attack of conscience and tells his lady fair the truth. She leaves him, as does Paulette, only to find Boyer trying to get his story made into a film. A great scene on a movie soundstage with Veronica Lake and Brian Donley as themselves being directed by none other than Mitchell Leisen, who also diected this picture.Goddard shows great flair as Anita and according to Miss DeHaviland, was very nervous during the filming that her upper lip would tremble. But she survived and did a fine job. She was to make several more flicks under the directorial hand of Leisen. Most importantly KITTY.
