Accomplished musician Blanche Ladoré (played by “Léontine”) places a personal ad in the paper wishing to marry an “equally talented musician.” Rémi Lacroche responds to her call. They meet in public, she with her trombone and he with his bass drum. It’s love at first sight but public noise disturbance to all within earshot. They wreak such havoc they end up in the police station!
Jan 1911
In a last gasp effort to school Titine in domestic labor, her parents entrust her with housesitting. She executes her obligations with catastrophic aplomb, shattering all the dishes in the gesture of cleaning them. She manages to flood and incinerate her entire home simultaneously. In a futile effort to find her baby brother and pet dog, she inherits a horde of stray canines and orphaned babies.
Mar 1912
