Song of Paris
When an englishman returns from abroad, he must face the powers of a foreign court in this British screwball gem.
Director: John Guillermin
Overview
A delightful romantic comedy which sees an archetypal Englishman – suavely played by debonair Dennis Price – return from a jaunt aboard to face a dastardly foreign count in a screwball duel for the hand of a beautiful mademoiselle.
Contains very mild comic violence.
