촉망받는 소프라노 로자와 아직 데뷔하지 못한 그녀의 애인 리카르도, 그리고 로자를 빼앗으려는 허영심 많은 성공한 테너 로돌포 사이의 삼각관계를 그린다. 식은 죽 먹기(Duck Soup)의 흥행 참패 이후 2년간 작품 활동이 없었던 막스 형제에게 MGM의 프로듀서 어빙 탈버그가 함께 작업할 것을 제안하면서 제작한 첫 번째 작품이자 막스 형제의 출연작 중 가장 높은 수익을 기록한 작품이기도 하다. 막스 형제는 염세적인 성향의 무정부주의자였다고 알려져 있는데, 이런 성향 때문인지 파라마운트에서 제작했던 초기 작품들은 다소 거칠고 엉성하지만, 그들만의 염세적인 세계관이 잘 드러난다고 평가받는다. 반면 MGM으로 이적 후 제작된 작품은 잘 짜인 플롯에 상황마다 적절한 위트가 배치된 대중적인 작품으로 흥행에서 큰 성공을 거두었다. 록그룹 퀸은 1975년에 동명의 앨범을 발표했으며, 다음 해인 76년에도 막스 형제의 출연작 중 하나인 경마장의 하루(A Day at the Races)라는 이름의 앨범을 발표해 막스 형제가 영화계뿐만 아니라 문화계에 미친 영향을 확인할 수 있다.
