Synopsis in German
Veronica Fisher arbeitet in einem Musikgeschäft und verkauft Notenblätter. Ihr Kollege Andrew Delbin Lankin verkauft Musikinstrumente. Die beiden können sich nicht besonders gut leiden.
Aus der Alltagsroutine flüchten sie sich in romantische Träumereien und einen innigen Briefwechsel mit Partnern, die sie persönlich noch nicht kennengelernt haben. Keiner der beiden Streithähne ahnt somit, dass sie vieles gemeinsam haben... (SWR Presse)

Reviews in German: "Beschwingtes Remake von Ernst Lubitsch's "Shop around the Corner", diesmal in das Chicago der Jahrhundertwende verlegt. Judy Garland scheint sich in dieser leichten Komödie wohl gefühlt zu haben. Der Film war nicht nur Buster Keatons letzte Arbeit für die MGM, zu sehen war auch die zweijährige Liza Minnelli in ihrer ersten "Rolle" in der Schlussequenz. - Leichte Kost, adrett zubereitet." (lhg 2006)
Remarks and general Information in German: Die Handlung wird von viel Musik begleitet, am Ende hat dann ein achtzehn Monate altes Baby namens Liza Minnelli seinen zweiten Filmauftritt (nach "Easter Parade" im Jahr zuvor) als Tochter des glücklichen Paares. (SWR Presse)
