| Summary |
American gramophone salesman Virgil Smith wants to sell his wares in pre-WWI Austria. To get the ball rolling, he hits on the idea of going straight to the top and selling one to Emperor Franz Joseph. First off, the palace guards think he's carrying a bomb and he's arrested. He subsequently meets Countess Johanna von Stolzenberg-Stolzenberg and, after the usual misunderstandings, falls in love with her. She falls in love with his dog, Buttons. The relation is fraught with obstacles and the emperor thinks royal blood marrying a commoner is bad darts altogether. What is to become of Smith and his countess? |
