Review
In this charming confection, one of the great light comedies of the early 1930s, the French
star of silent movies, Marcel Levesque, assays a nerdy scientist whose rival in love for
Josseline Gael is Jean Gabin -- and guess who wins? Everything about this movie is charming
and wonderful, and it’s a shame that today, it exists only in one print, at the CNC/Ministry
of Culture, in France. Chuck Leonard, Los Angeles, USA
