              Two for the road.

              A young saleswoman has the opportunity to spend some time on the Côte d'Azur in the company of a very attractive boy of as modest a background as hers, she believes.

              This does not prevent feelings from arising between the two lovebirds. In fact, the young man is none other than a rich English lord, and he falls in love with her.

              This is the French version of the German film "zwei in einem Auto" (two in a car),and,as far car sharing is concerned , both comedies were ahead of their time ; this is a harmless predictable comedy :the best is the scene in the restaurant where Monsieur Biscotte is to meet his travel companion :he 's supposed to hold a hooter in his hand ; but she's actually a woman and she has given the honk to a handsome (and wealthy ,but she does not have a clue about it) man : she won't lose on the exchange !

              Screenplay co-written by Ernst Marischka ,who score high in the fifties with the Sissi trilogy ,besides the German version featured Romy Schneider's mother ,Magda .

              Annabella and co-star Jean Murat were to marry two years later to divorce in the late thirties when the wife became Mrs Tyrone Power.
