Marie de Flor (MacDonald), a glamorous Canadian prima donna, is renowned for her beauty, exquisite voice and fierce temperament. When news arrives that her brother Jack (Jimmy Stewart in one of his earliest screen roles) has been wounded in a prison escape, Marie realizes she must go to him despite the danger. Lured into the wilderness, she encounters Sgt. Bruce (Eddy), who is hunting the fugitive. Sgt. Bruce is soon hot on Marie's trail as well! The New York Times called Rose-Marie a "blithely melodious film rich in scenic beauty." And after all these years, this rugged romance is as wonderful as ever. (jakelijan virallinen teksti)

A great film operetta based on the successful 1924 piece by Rudolf Friml and Herbert Stothart. This is the second adaptation (the first came out in 1928 with Joan Crawford in the lead role) and the first sound adaptation. I really didn't expect it to be such a good film. The operetta tradition in Hollywood film is not well known, although it runs through the careers of Jeanette MacDonald and Ernst Lubitsch, and many others. This is exactly the kind of film that MGM offered to Jarmila Novotná. The story is great, a popular singer gives up her career to rescue her brother, who has a bounty on his head, in the Canadian wilderness. MacDonald is attractive, sings well, and she’s even funny. He acquires alongside her the very attractive Mirek Dušín in a riding uniform with the face of Nelson Eddy. The finale combines the story of our protagonist and the protagonist from Puccini's "Tosca" and is wonderfully spectacular. A perfect experience. It’s just too bad that the last time this version of Rose-Marie was seen on TV was in 1998.
