Gringalet (1946 film)

Gringalet is a 1946 French comedy film directed by André Berthomieu and starring Charles Vanel, Marguerite Deval and Suzy Carrier. It was based on the play of the same title by Paul Vandenberghe, who co-wrote the screenplay and also appears in the title role. The film was later remade as the 1959 Argentine film Gringalet

The film's sets were designed by the art director Paul-Louis Boutié, contributing to the film's distinct look and feel. Filming took place in France during the mid-1940s, a time when the French film industry was recovering from the effects of World War II. The production benefited from a strong collaboration between the director and the team, including Vandenberghe’s contribution to the screenplay, which enhanced the comedic elements of the original stage play.
