Comment
Jane Russell is an oil millionairess who travels incognito by boat to France to see if she can find a man who loves her for who she is and not for her money. This is essentially a vehicle to show off Jane Russell's assests in a variety of low cut outfits. This was originally released by Howard Hughes in 3D and was censored in America, although today it would not be considered risque in any way. The plot is thin and the musical numbers forced into the script.
