What a movie! Absolutely stunning! Dialogues are second to none, acting is brilliant, the pair Wayne-Dietrich are just natural, filming is perfect etc etc If some directors are in need of inspiration they just need to copy paste this one, snd good actors we do have some don't say we don't, it's just they don't have the good directors...

Had never seen this Dietrich film before & wasn't quite sure if I was liking it or not...until the end...that's when I realized I liked it.

This was an era where romance was won by a fist fight…John Wayne and Malene Dietrich made a good pair..

After being labelled box office poison in 1938 Marlene's run as a exotic european film goddess appeared to be over, but in 1939's Destry Rides Again she re-invented herself completely, and as Bijou in Seven Sinners again confirmed her new bawdy image

Her contribution during the war was so inspiring and John Wayne forget about his contribution.

Was it ny imagination or did some on screen sparks fly between Wayne and Dietrich. She was just as perilous in real life as on film.

Эта Дитрих как эхо войны, дыхание смерти во все что она поет и делает. Все настолько прикрыто вуалью. В ней жизни. Это мумия с дорогими украшениями.

Aaaand once again... wealth and privilege carry the day! WE love Bijou, but the elitists were damned if they'd allow her to crash their party. Come to think of it, they were damned, anyway. Thank you for posting this, and reminding us of the priggish mores of the 1940s.

“Look at me! I’m John Wayne. The costume department set me up with these Navy whites. What do ya think?”

After "Stagecoach", studios wanted to borrow John Wayne from Republic for their films. After Marlene Dietrich revitalized her career with James Stewart in "Destry Rides Again" she landed at Universal. WC Fields and Mae West also found renewed success at "the new Universal" in the late 30's and early 40's as the studio upgraded under Standard Capital.
