My wife is formidable

French film carried out by Andre Hunebelle in 1951

Synopsis

Sculptor, Raymond Corbier has a formidable woman, Sylvia. He adores it. To save an impassioned admiror who simulates a suicide because she does not answer her advances, Sylvia, irreproachable wife, are obliged to lie for the first time at Raymond. This small lie will put in great danger their happiness. Convinced that Sylvia misleads it with Francis Germain, Raymond declares himself insane in love with Marguerite, the very inaccurate wife of his best friend Gaston Rival. Many comic tests will emerge for the quartet, which will be found in a winter sports resort. At the time of a masked ball, Raymond and Sylvia will be reconciled tenderly whereas Gaston includes/understands his misfortune.
