Charles Boyer was a right in character in this lighthearted dramatic series, playing the same romantic French rogue that had made him one of the most glamorous film stars of the '30s and '40s. His Michel, said the announcer, "belongs to that royal line of adventurers whose titles are stitched on the fabric of their own imaginations but who'd willingly give up any title for a moment of romance or a spot of cash." The show opened with lively French music being played by a street accordionist while a young woman sings. Michel walks out of the early evening, his footsteps coming close. "Bon soir, my dear," he says in passing. "Bon soir, Michel," she replies wistfully.
