Another comedy about the pitfalls and perils of marriage from Alice Guy-Blaché. This time, the bride’s father is the problem. A great lover of music, he’ll only accept a musician for a son-in-law. Sadly though, his daughter’s sweetheart has other qualities and abilities, among them that of acting… Once again, shrewdness saves the day for the good at heart!
