Jeanette MacDonald and Nelson Eddy in the most famous film of their careers! Resounding with such songs as "Rose-Marie, I Love You," "Song of the Mounties" and the beloved "Indian Love Call," Rose-Marie immortalized Hollywood's greatest singing team. This 1936 screen version of the Rudolf Friml-Herbert Stothart Broadway hit is set in the breathtaking wilderness of the Canadian Rockies. Marie de Flor (MacDonald), a glamorous Canadian prima donna, is renowned for her beauty, exquisite voice and fierce temperament. When news arrives that her brother Jack (Jimmy Stewart in one of his earliest screen roles) has been wounded in a prison escape, Marie realizes she must go to him despite the danger. Lured into the wilderness, she encounters Sgt. Bruce (Eddy), who is hunting the fugitive. Sgt. Bruce is soon hot on Marie's trail as well! The New York Times called Rose-Marie a "blithely melodious film rich in scenic beauty." And after all these years, this rugged romance is as wonderful as ever. - Container.

When she crossed the room to speak to some woman after dinner, whatever that woman's social position might formerly have been, you could be sure that at present she was on the upward wing. When Mrs. Ussher discovered extraordinary qualities of mind and sympathy in some hitherto impossible man, you might be certain it was time to begin to book him in advance.

A novel in verse about a young American girl who marries an Englishman, loses him in the Great War, bears his son, and finds herself facing with her indomitable mother-in-law the new peril.
