Bid adieu to sweethearts



Bid adieu to sweethearts


Here's a scene from one of Mr. Maraschino's more famous movies. It is Paris during World War I and Mr. Maraschino is having un verre de vin rouge with his sweetheart. Marching past are olive-headed dough boys heading for the front. Can you see the Eiffel tower in the background?

For viewers interested in historical accuracy...those are pimento olives. Hence the troops appear to be wearing little red hats. Those aren't hats, they're pimentos.
