About La coqueluche de ces dames
A young man realizes that his fiancée is asking the Mystery Prince for advice on the conduct of his future household. The Mystery Prince is a radio presenter adored by his listeners. To get rid of this cumbersome character, the young man makes one of his comrades pass for the presenter, who has become the worst of cads.
Directed by Gabriel Rosca, La coqueluche de ces dames leans on a strong ensemble — Gaby Basset, Louis-Jacques Boucot, Jeanne Fusier-Gir — 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 1936.
