About The Heirs of Uncle James
The relatives of wealthy, unmarried and slightly eccentric uncle James are all after his money -except his nice Ginette. She brings him to adopt two war orpahns and shows him, how his other relatives raely "love" him. But suddenly the orphans' father, a Lieutenat stands at the door of the house.
Directed by Henry Wulschleger, Alfred Machin, The Heirs of Uncle James leans on a strong ensemble — Ginette Maddie, Louis Monfils, Suzy Love — 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 1924.
