Rose Marie (1936 film)

Rose Marie is a 1936 American musical Western film directed by W. S. Van Dyke and starring Jeanette MacDonald, Nelson Eddy and Reginald Owen.

Portions of Rudolf Friml and Herbert Stothart's original score for the Broadway musical are included in both the 1936 and 1954 films.

[2] Marie de Flor is a Canadian soprano performing in Roméo et Juliette in Montreal with the premier of Quebec in the audience.

At the same time, Sergeant Bruce of the Mounties reports to headquarters and receives his latest mission: he must find Jack Flower, believed to be hiding near Lake Chibougam.

Bruce insists that Marie report Boniface's theft, but she cannot admit her real identity, calling herself Rose.

Sergeant Bruce, who has been following her, rescues her from drowning as they cross a deep river, and Boniface flees to the forest.

Phillips stated that orders were sent by Louis B. Mayer, who was angry at Eddy for his personal involvement in MacDonald's life.

[1] In a contemporary review for The New York Times, critic Frank S. Nugent called Rose Marie "[a]s blithely melodious and rich in scenic beauty as any picture that has come from Hollywood" and wrote: "... Jeanette MacDonald and Nelson Eddy sing an operetta's love songs and we care not who may write its book.
