Caption

Text from back of photograph: Heart Song-- Claudette Colbert finishes "Zaza" singing "Hello, My Darling" to Herbert Marshall. And here is actual filming of her doing the number, a sentimental ballad in which she was coached by Fanny Brice, who though under contract to M-G-M generously worked with the Paramount star for two days, imparting the technique that made Fanny Brice singing "My Man" an international attraction.
