- Release, runtime and language
- 1937 · 92 mins · French
- Starring
- Arletty, Pauline Carton, Saturnin Fabre, Sacha Guitry, Jacques Baumer, Jacqueline Delubac
Sacha Guitry ditches his familiar top hat for a military uniform, portraying a dashing valet who becomes entangled in an uneasy romance with his new mistress, played by his real‑life wife Jacqueline Delubac, herself linked to a pompous politician. The lively class comedy buzzes with colorful supporting roles and playfully erases the line between the aristocratic upstairs and the servant‑filled downstairs.
