Arlette and Love (French: Arlette et l'amour) is a 1943 French romantic comedy film directed by Robert Vernay and starring André Luguet, Josette Day and André Alerme.[1] It is based on the play Atout Coeur! by Félix Gandéra, adapted for the screen by Marcel Pagnol. It was filmed at the Marseille Studios while location shooting took place around Antibes and Aix-en-Provence.[2] The film's sets were designed by the art director Robert Giordani.
Arlette meets and marries a man posing as a count, who robs her and absconds on her wedding night. Her mother then tracks down the real aristocrat whose name was stolen and insists that he is legally married to her daughter.
