Songless adaptation of the Broadway musical could maybe use some colorful production numbers to break up all the jabbering in this somewhat fatigued comedy-drama. An honest policeman in Paris is determined to keep his prostitute-sweetheart off the streets, going so far as to impersonate a 'customer'.
