Bogdanovic’s mother, Herma (née Robinson), was an Austrian Jew.
The film is set in the world of the theater, with the story of a married Broadway producer (Wilson) attempting to convince a call-girl (Poots) to change her life.
Except it’s screwball, so the story quickly spreads into multiple tales, with the characters running in and out of each other’s paths.
