For the third time Danielle Darrieux played opposite Albert Préjean .(thanks Didier)They were to meet again in "Caprices" another harmless comedy by Leo Joannon who ended his career as a preachy director desperately trying to edify his audience ("le Défroqué" "Le Secret de Soeur Angèle" etc).
This is based on the same pattern as ,say, "New-York Miami" : a man and a girl spends the whole movie squabbling but in the end the love they make equals the hate they take.
So Préjean /Gable ,a lady killer who's got many a mistress (one of them being particularly jealous) ,saves a girl(Darrieux /Colbert) who wanted to commit suicide ,cause her boss she is in love with has fired her (because ,he tells his mother,"I want to marry her ,but I could not marry my secretary ,so I 've got to dismiss her!").
Lucie turns the house of the chic dandy upside down!She's really a nuisance to live with at home and WHY this man -who anyway could be her father;Darrieux was born in 1917 and Préjean in 1894- wants to marry her is the great mystery of a harmless little comedy,pleasant ,but not particularly memorable.
