Champagne is a romantic comedy about a millionaire's decision to teach his frivolous "flapper" daughter (played by the effervescent comedy actress Betty Balfour) a lesson by feigning bankruptcy. Whatever Hitchcock thought about the story, he did introduce some extraordinary experimental touches, including a glorious opening shot filmed through a raised champagne glass, and some entertaining effects to convey sea sickness on the part of the girl's fiancé.
