User Reviews

Some rubbish from the French thirties.

There are two monstres sacrés:Raimu,without his Provençal accent for a while ,and Françoise Rosay .

This movie is proof positive that two great thespians cannot always save a film.Based on a play,it is very bad filmed stage production.The cock and bull story involves an actress,her ex-husband ,a gym teacher ,her lover, a baron,her spoilt daughter who has just married one of her mom's fans (but mom did not know he was an admirer).The plot revolves around cuckolds,mistaken identities , lovers and mistresses.Louis Verneuil's lines are far from Henri Jeanson.

Fernand Rivers sank into oblivion.
