Merchant of Love (French: Marchand d'amour) is a 1935 French comedy film directed by Edmond T. Gréville and starring Jean Galland, Rosine Deréan and Françoise Rosay.[1] The film's sets were designed by the art director Pierre Schild.

Reception

[edit | edit source]

Writing for The Spectator in 1936, Graham Greene gave the film a mildly positive review, characterizing it as "a melodramatic and rather silly tale [...] directed with immense panache and a secret sense of amusement".[2]
