The Firefly is a 1937 musical film starring Jeanette MacDonald and Allan Jones. The film is an adaptation of the operetta of the same name by composer Rudolf Friml and librettist Otto A. Harbach that premiered on Broadway in 1912. The film used nearly all of the music from the operetta but jettisoned the plot in favor of a new storyline set in Spain during the time of the Emperor Napoleon I. It added a new song, "The Donkey Serenade" (a reworking by Herbert Stothart of Friml's 1918 orchestral piece 'Chanson'), which became extremely popular, as was one of the Friml songs, "Giannina Mia". The original release prints of the film were elaborately tinted with Sepia-Blue, Sepia-Orange and Sepia-Blue-Pink.

  • Tarantella (OT: The Firefly) ist eine US-amerikanische Filmoperette aus dem Jahr 1937 und das erste reine Soloprojekt von Jeanette MacDonald seit ihrem Wechsel zu MGM Mitte 1933. Die Regie des Films lag in den Händen von Robert Z. Leonard. Tarantella übernahm von der Operette The Firefly von Rudolf Friml und Otto Harbach nur die Lieder, verband diese jedoch mit einer ganz neuen Handlung. (de)
