Film Review
This rambling French comedy from the early days of sound would probably have passed into
oblivion were it not for one particular name on its list of credits. A certain music
hall performer named Fernandel makes a very early film appearance. Despite the brevity
of his time on screen, the comic actor leaves a lasting impression, and it is little wonder
that he would go to become one of the most popular film comedians of his generation.
