Good Luck

Claude works as a painter. His neighbour Marie works as a laundress. The man likes the girl but does not say so. He draws her into his pictures. One day when they meet he wishes her good luck. After those words Marie buys a lottery ticket. The ticket wins two million. The two of them share the money. But Marie is promised to someone else. Her fiancé is going away for a short spell of military training. The marriage is to happen when he returns. The two of them decide to make use of that short time. They set off travelling and spend the money. To avoid suspicion they pass themselves off as father and daughter. Sacha Guitry and Jacqueline Delubac take the leads, and Guitry directed the French film of 1935 together with Fernand Rivers.
