What happens

Premiere (also known as One Night in Paris) is a 1938 British musical mystery film directed by Walter Summers and starring John Lodge, Judy Kelly, Joan Marion and Hugh Williams. It was written by Friedrich Dammann, Max Wallner and F. McGrew Willis, and shot at Elstree Studios. It was a close remake of the 1937 Austrian film Premiere and re-used a number of musical scenes from the original which were dubbed into English. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
