1934 film by Gilbert Miller
The Lady Is Willing is a 1934 British comedy film directed by Gilbert Miller and starring Leslie Howard (billed as "Mr. Leslie Howard").
The film was unsuccessful, though it received some positive feedbacks; Mordaunt Hall wrote for The New York Times:
it is a farce of the Parisian variety which possesses something of the effervescent quality René Clair gives to his pictures. Although the action is stilted here and there, obviously occasionally because of censorial deletions, the film has the compensating virtues of excellent acting, scintillating lines and original, but decidedly mad, escapades.[1]
Plot
Set in France, private detective Albert Latour is employed by three men who aim to take revenge on the man responsible for a failed investment. Realising that the man's wife is wealthy, Latour kidnaps her in order to hold a ransom. The matter gets complicated when he finds himself falling in love with her.[2]
