Bearing an uncanny resemblance to the world-famous flier, Martin becomes the hit of the party, especially with Durans' long-suffering wife Lili (Tierney), an amorous young woman who can't quite tell the two of them apart. ; ; Nominated for two Academy Awards, On The Riviera is 'capitol E entertainment' (los Angeles Examiner), a madcap tour de farce 'whose songs, dances and laughs sparkle as brightly as its Technicolor' (Time)
