Yes, Raoul André, best known for his very very light comedies, directed this serious drama with lot of characters from various social ranks. The story is very effective in crossing and double crossing each character, poor and rich struggling, very fascinating crescendo story. Philippe Lemaire is great as the poor character trying to find out the truth, surrounded by charming Nicole Courcel and Dominique Wilms. Don't miss Alexander d'Arcy, a very peculiar character. Next movie by Raoul André, Les Pépées Font La Loi, is a top comedy with very fine girls (mmmh Claudine Dupuis, Raoul's wife Louise Carletti, Dominique Wilms again, ...) struggling against gangsters (Louis de Funès as Jeannot la Bonne Affaire).
