All images © Various.

The story of a dumb villager whoinherits an inn and defends it successfully against his acquisitive auntAugustine with whose daughter (B.B.) he is in love.

The director, Jean Boyer, was mounting the production of a film entitled Le Trou Normand (English title: Crazy for Love). the name of a village inn. Roger Vadim took him to see Brigitte Bardot at drama school, and Boyer promptly offered her a part of a young girl caught up in an intrigue about the ownership of the inn, who, in the end, leaves the village to take up an acting career.

Bardot received around £300 for the part.

The film was a minor venture which made no great impact but the critics liked the newcomer. It had a brief run in France, was not shown in Britain, and imported into the United States only when BB became a star.
