...Melody (book & lyrics by Otto Harbach; music by Sigmund Romberg; Kirkland & Grisman, producers) is a spavined specimen of that old theatrical wheelhorse, the operetta. Laid in a complicated Balkan kingdom, it tries to be sentimental, succeeds only in being arch. It contains a surprise, Comedienne Ruth Weston singing.

There are many scenes where Brisson sings to himself, argues, drinks and laughs with himself, filling the screen in all directions with the manly Brisson dimples but managing more than in his earlier pictures to tone down the Brisson mannerisms. A situation develops well toward the middle...
