TOPAZE AFI Fest All-Night Movie Marathon: Comedies of Elegance

Director Harry D’Arrast photographed common people and places with remarkable elegance. Here he presents an ultra-sophisticated comedy-drama based on a play by Pagnol. John Barrymore portrays a timid French schoolteacher who gets fired, is duped into endorsing a product under false pretenses, and metamorphoses into a tycoon.
