THE BIG POND.

Pierre Mirande (Maurice Chevalier) is a Venetian tour guide from a poor French family. He falls in love with Barbara Billings (Claudette Colbert), a wealthy American tourist. Barbara's suitor Ronnie (Frank Lyon) and her father (George Barbier) see him as a fortune hunter. Pierre is fired when he's wrongly accused of spilling rum on some chewing gum samples. He wins back his job and is promoted when he sells liquor-coated chewing gum as a sales gimmick.
