Squeak-squeak
Directed by Jean Girault
A lighthearted 1960s comedy built on romantic scheming and financial con artistry, where a father plots to marry off his daughter to a wealthy sucker to recover his wife's bad investment.
Léonard Monestier owns a large fortune, alas his wife Cynthia made a bad investment in a worthless oil concession. Far from letting this get him down, Léonard decides to find a sucker to buy this concession from him. Right on cue appears Antoine Brévin, a befuddled billionaire who is very interested in Léonard's beautiful daughter Patricia and would do anything to win her hand...
