The World's in Love is one of several film versions of Franz Lehar's operetta Clo Clo. Marta Eggerth is cast as musical-comedy favorite Ilona Ratkay, who has made the mistake of hiring ambitious press agent Anton (Hans Moser). Figuring that any publicity is good publicity, Anton insists upon spreading rumors of Ilona's alleged sexual peccadilloes. Her career in tatters, our heroine wonders if anyone will ever truly fall in love with her. She doesn't have to wonder long -- not with handsome farmer Peter von Waldenau (Rolf Wanka). But even this moment of bliss is exploited by Anton, who plants a newspaper story claiming that Ilona is the illegitimate daughter of Peter's wealthy father! ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
