Pre-Code Classics: Love Me Tonight

@ This racy, upscale 1932 musical was directed by the legendary Rouben Mamoulian and stars the always-dapper Maurice Chevalier and a surprisingly sexy Jeanette MacDonald, singing an inventive score by Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart. Chevalier is a Parisian tailor who poses as a nobleman to collect a sizeable bill from an aristocrat and ends up falling for an aloof young princess. The great supporting cast includes Myrna Loy and Charles Ruggles. Pre-Code Classics will include a 25-minute introduction from CCA Cinema Director Matthew Cannella.
