Laughing Heirs

Young salesman Peter Frank (Heinz Rühmann) couldn't believe his luck when he stood to inherit his late uncle's prosperous champagne vineyard lock, stock, and barrel. Unfortunately, the will came with a caveat--that he couldn't consume the product, or any alcohol, for a month. Further complications arise when he tries to woo the lovely daughter (Lien Deyers) of a competing vintner. Early-career charmer from Max Ophüls co-stars Ida Wüst. 76 min. Standard; Soundtrack: German; Subtitles: English; audio commentary. In German with English subtitles.
