In the 30's, in Paris, the playboy Henri Pasquier (Pierre Mingand) is supported by his father, Dr. Pasquier (Paul Escoffier) with money and a brandy new car. When Dr. Pasquier decides to suspend the allowance and sell the car to force Henri to get a job, he leaves home and associates to a gang of car thieves. Henri falls in love for the thief Jeannette (Danielle Darrieux), and when they are betrayed by their boss, they decide to move to Casablanca and straight their lives.
"Mauvaise Graine" is the magnificent debut of Billy Wilder as director. The attractive story has action, romance, drama, comedy in right doses, and in 2006, there is another great attraction: the wonderful old cars. The planes of shooting are amazing even for the present days. The seventeen years old Danielle Darrieux, in the beginning of career and extremely beautiful, is another attraction. This unknown movie is a gem to be discovered. My vote is eight.
