The Great Lover
5.5
“He'll give you a complete course in love-making! He'll show you how to win a woman's heart-or how to gently escape from bounds that grow boring! In short, he'll give you the time of your romance-craving life!”
An aspiring classical singer is romanced by both a famous opera star and his younger understudy.
