It's a pleasure to see such an old black and white in the middle of the contemporary movie maelstrom. Other times, other mores, other scenery.
I had never seen Claude Dauphin and Jean Martinelli that young, neither Françoise Rosay and Pauline Carton moreover. And when one can see such times movies, in the beginning of the thirties, when this film was itself completely contemporary then, and one knows the apocalypse coming in France and Europe 6 years later, one can understand also the Frenc people surprise in front of that dark age. In 1933, there was a very strong wind of insouciance, lightness, even irresponsibility, the one of an teenager who fears nothing since he knows nothing.
Excellent interpretation. Direction is almost uncritizable since it represents a museum piece of our movie history. Dialogs are sweet and subtle, with delicious humour.
