What happens

But It's Nothing Serious (Italian: Ma non è una cosa seria) is a 1936 Italian "white-telephones" romantic comedy film directed by Mario Camerini and starring Vittorio De Sica, Elisa Cegani and Assia Noris. It is based on a play by Luigi Pirandello. Two years later Camerini remade it as a German film The Man Who Couldn't Say No. The film's sets were designed by the art director Gastone Medin. It was shot at the studios of Caesar Film in Rome. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
