My third favourite Ernst Lubitsch picture after "Trouble in Paradise" and "Ninotchka" (another in which Melvyn Douglas shows lithe comedic timing), even though it feels more trivial than them.

I liked seeing Merle Oberon in a lighter role after the tragic "Wuthering Heights". Young Burgess Meredith is a hoot playing a wacky artist who fascinates Oberon, shaking up her marriage.

After six years of marriage to a distracted insurance salesman, Larry Baker (Melvyn Douglas), Jill Baker (Merle Oberson) develops a case of hiccups. A psychologist, Vengard (Alan Mowbray), diagnosis is that Jill affliction is caused by marital problems. Jill decides to enter into a new relationship with another patient of Vengard, a neurotic concert pianist named Sebastian (Burgess Meredith). Although Larry agrees to a divorce, he remains in love with Jill. Will they ever get back together?
