The CinePearl Take
Schertzinger's direction balances brisk pacing with inventive visual jokes, letting Dalton's expressive face do most of the talking. The film’s commentary on urban versus rural values feels oddly resonant today, while the supporting cast provides a lively backdrop. Though the intertitles are occasionally melodramatic, the overall charm outweighs the period's technical limits.
