Angelo Musco (first billed) leaves his small town in Sicily to go to Rome for an operation. Once there, he decides he likes that continental air and proceeds to acquire a veneer of same...and also acquires a dancer, (the 2nd-billed Lida Gloria), sporting-and-claiming an even-larger dose of Continental Veneer.
They return together to Sicily with Musco under the impression she comes from the continent. Leda's clothes, manners, habits and flirting ways start a small revelation-style revolution, which is not to Musco's liking.
He ships Leda back to Rome, but not before learning that he has been taken in by a Scilian native, as Leda was born in a near-by town.
First US showing was at NYC's Cinecitta Theatre, in November of 1939, with Italian dialogue and no English titles. Film Daily called it a slightly naughty and very amusing comedy.
