Chevalier's French accent is great when he sings "Anything to Please the Queen" and "Nobody's Using It Now."
The story is of a vagabond soldier, who sang his way into the heart of a Queen. Chevalier is the soldier and Miss MacDonald is the Queen, and a charming team they make. Lillian Reth and Lupino Lane furnish the comedy needed.
