"Monte Carlo" is a 1930 British musical comedy film directed by Hanns Schwarz and co-directed by an uncredited Maurice Elvey. The film is based on the operetta "Die Bajadere" by Emmerich Kálmán and features a screenplay by Hans Müller, Erik Charell, and Richard Schayer. The story revolves around a young woman who, after being left at the altar, decides to head to Monte Carlo to recover. There, she becomes involved in a whirlwind of romance and gambling.

The film stars Jack Buchanan as the male lead, with Jeanette MacDonald playing the female protagonist. "Monte Carlo" is noted for its musical numbers, including the song "Beyond the Blue Horizon," which became a hit for MacDonald and is often associated with her career. The film's lavish sets, costumes, and the charm of its leads contributed to its success at the time of its release.

"Monte Carlo" was produced by the British International Pictures and distributed by the Wardour Films in the UK. In the United States, it was distributed by Paramount Pictures. The film represents an early example of the musical film genre that would become increasingly popular throughout the 1930s. It is also significant for its use of early sound film technology, which allowed for the synchronization of music and dialogue.

The film received positive reviews for its entertainment value, the chemistry between the leads, and its musical score. Over the years, "Monte Carlo" has been subject to critical re-evaluation, with some considering it a classic of the pre-Code era of Hollywood. Despite its British production, "Monte Carlo" had a style that was heavily influenced by the Hollywood musicals of the time, reflecting the transatlantic exchange of cinematic techniques and aesthetics.

As a piece of cinematic history, "Monte Carlo" is of interest to film scholars studying the development of the musical genre, the transition from silent to sound films, and the international film industry of the early 20th century.
