Classy production from Willi Forst per usual, even if this one was made during the busy period of the Third Reich. Thankfully had little to do with any propaganda, so we get a straight forward Viennese drama with music, rivalry and romance. Perhaps a little too light to really set root, but this was war time so people needed escapism and for that Operette (1940) was a effective creation.
