Eve Peabody, a penniless ballerina who lost all her money on the French Riviera, arrives in Paris and manages to sneak into a high class party, where she is approached by Georges Flammarion, a rich noble man, who asks her to seduce Jacques Picot, the son of Champagne producers, who is flirting with his wife Hélène. To Eve, this sounds like an easy task, but the situation gets complicated by Tibor Czerny, a taxi driver who first helped Eve and is now intentioned to conquer her. A crackling screwball comedy, written by Wilder and Brackett.
