Synopsis
When his childhood sweetheart, Paulette Dupont, marries Robert de
Trivelin, Désiré Labaule resolves to win her back.
Unable to prevent the marriage from taking place, he follows the newly
weds on their honeymoon and does everything he can to prevent them from
consummating their union. Robert becomes so unsettled by
Désiré’s interruptions that he is unable to make love to
his wife and he ends up having to consult a psychiatrist. The
latter suggests that he should see Gloria, a woman of ill-repute...
Film Review
Despite having an exceptional cast, which includes the great comedienne
Jacqueline Maillan and some actors who are now very highly regarded,
this adaptation of Pierre Veber’s play falls somewhat flat and is
typical of the kind of bargain basement comedy that French audiences
had to endure in the late 1950s. The jokes are too predictable to
be amusing, the performances lack any kind of finesse and the direction
is lamentable. It’s plodding and not remotely funny. Not a
patch on the 1937 film version of the play.
