* CowboyBebopAtHisComputer: In 1978, Robert L. Carringer and Barry Sabath claimed that the film featured Sally becoming an apprentice to a shopkeeper played by Erich Schönfelder, and meeting his employer's daughter, played by Ossi Oswalda. This does indeed happen... in ''Shoe Palace Pinkus'', Lubitsch's first ''Sally'' movie. As this film was believed to be missing at the time, it's understandable why some people had some misconceptions about its plot.



* VacationDearBoy: The film's Alpine setting came about partially become of this trope, partially as a way for Lubitsch to do his own take on the then-popular Mountain Film genre. It was one of several films the director set in the Alps.

* UnintentionallyUnsympathetic: The film tries to keep Sally and Kitty likable by having them get along well and drop some zingers. Nevermind that they're both cheating on their spouses, and their relationships to them are not shown to have any issues ''beyond'' said cheating.

Added DiffLines:

* BaseBreakingCharacter: Sally Pinkus/Meyer is one of Lubitsch's more contentious creations. Is he a LoveableRogue or just a lecherous {{Jerkass}}? Is his shtick as a Jewish stereotype an ActuallyPrettyFunny case of NWordPrivileges, or does it [[OffendingTheCreatorsOwn fall into offensive territory regardless of Lubitsch's heritage?]] Finally, is his ButtMonkey characterization in this film a welcome KarmaHoudiniWarranty, or a misguided attempt by Lubitsch at casting himself as a comedic lead?
