Plot summary

Famed movie director Paul Robaix breaks with tradition by not casting his actress-comedienne wife, Lucy Dell, in his latest film production, a version of Madame Butterfly. Undaunted, the resourceful Lucy wings her way to Tokyo and, masquerading as a Japanese geisha, lands the coveted role from her unsuspecting husband! But in front of the cameras (and behind the pancake makeup), Lucy faces greater challenges: her lecherous leading man - and a husband who is beginning to realize that his talented new "discovery" seems vaguely familiar...

A perfectly charming, yet highly implausible comedy of

A perfectly charming, yet highly implausible comedy of errors in which Shirley Maclaine stars as a high profile comic actress whose director husband decides not to cast her in his latest pic, an adaptation of Madame Butterfly set entirely on location in Japan. Master of blatantly obvious disguise, Maclaine, conspires with the film's producer and masquerades as Yoko Mori, who is an actual geisha and not Shirley in geisha get up complete with mildly racist accent. It kind of loses momentum halfway through, Montand is a charisma vacuum and Cummings shouts his way through the film. Maclaine is fine though. It just needed to be a touch more farcical with a better supporting cast. Sweet ending with a great closing line.

An excellent movie that is both a touching

An excellent movie that is both a touching romance between a married couple and a sympathetic homage to Japanese culture well before that became fashionable. Both MacLaine and Montand give stellar performances. There is never a false note as the ingenious but straightforward plot moves quickly along and reaches a conclusion that is emotionally satisfying without being obvious. The journey is enhanced by superb location shots and the background story and music of Puccini's opera Madame Butterfly.
