About this release
A Venezia un garzone di sartoria cui piacciono molto le donne, per conquistarne i favori si fa passare per il grande seduttore suo concittadino Giacomo Casanova. Ma la commedia degli equivoci finisce per coinvolgerlo pericolosamente in una congiura contro il Doge. Sontuosa messa in scena, solido il cast, Bob Hope in gran forma, McLeod dirige con brio.
