A well-constructed, fairly amusing one-act vaudeville, but based on the most hackneyed of situations (the cuckolded husband, with the added bonus here of... the cuckolded lover!) This little thing is worthwhile above all for Fernandel's undeniable comic talent. (It's a pleasure for the spectator to see the impudence with which he dominates and manipulates poor Pierre Darteuil, so indignant that he regularly emits animal cries). For his part, Marc Allégret films this superficial playlet as best he can, without being able to flesh it out. Two or three timid camera movements are indicative of his (vain) efforts to enrich the material.
