About Mies Marseillesta
Engineering student Petteri and retired captain Jere Renkonen arrive in Terijoki as guests of architect Matti Marras at the villa he has rented. In the midst of everything, the owner of the villa, Russian émigré prince Asatiánts, arrives with his niece Darja. Petteri eavesdrops and learns that the prince is expecting a "man from Marseille" at the villa. This man is supposed to take a secret document hidden in a large cabinet in the hall across the border to Moscow, containing information about the hiding place of the prince's family jewels.
Directed by Tapio Ilomäki, Mies Marseillesta leans on a strong ensemble — Ensio Jouko, Ellen Parviainen, Kerttu Krohn — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1937.
