Later, she learns that she is pregnant and to disclose that her husband had paid her a visit, would get him into trouble, which she doesn't, the townspeople are unanimous in their condemnation of her.

Un soir de joie

Un soir de joie

Based on a true story from November 1943 : the Resistance manages to publish a fake edition of the pro-German newspaper 'Le Soir', put on sale by surprise in the newsstands and stuffed full of parodic articles pouring ridicule upon occupying forces. The film faithfully traced the course of this humorous and enterprising attempt to wake up the populace, filling out the basic plot with irreverent patriotic gags.
