Claude is so cute in this


It's interesting to watch Claude in this very early role. He hasn't yet developed into the magnificent actor he was to become a bit later. He still is stiff, theatrical and overacts sometimes. Yet there are flashes of his brilliance and subtlety in some of the scenes. He's not as sexy here as he was in the 40's and looks remarkably boyish for someone 44 years old at the time of making it. He looks 25, tops and cute as hell!

I completely agree - I loved the scene where he lifts his wife into his arms and then cons the man into employing him for 300 a week: his laugh is delightful!

I'm shocked, shocked! to find that gambling is going on in here!
