The Affairs of Cellini (1934)
Director: Gregory La Cava
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Costume romp in 16th-century Florence, with March as the roguish artist who switches his amorous attentions from his model (Wray) to a married duchess (Bennett), whose husband (Morgan) is meantime pursuing the model. Mildly diverting in a rather tiresome, bedroom farcical way, but entirely forgettable aside from Charles Rosher's attractive camerawork.Author: TM
