...Charlene joined the parade and married Actor Helmut Dantine, who had made a career out of playing the more-or-less nice Nazis of World War II movies. She and Helmut had a son, but they wound up in an angry divorce in 1950. He married her, said Charlene, "only for the money that I expected to receive from my father."

Backgrounds of the Grande Corniche are getting to be a grand cliché in movies nowadays, and Ball's scenario has more twists and turns than the Grand Prix. But it also has its moments, among them a magnificently foppish performance...
