The bluffer

Movie

Starring André Luguet, Alyce Ardell, Émile Chautard, André Cheron

Parallel French-speaking version of Warners' "High Pressure" (1932), a comedy satire on fast-talking promoters, crazy inventors, and stock market hype. The story line comes from Kandel's stage play "Hot Money," which had played on Broadway a month or two in 1931, before Warners bought screen rights and changed the title.
