The setting for "One Rainy Aft

what happens on a rainy afternoon.
And this is what happened:
Philippe keeps rendezvous at

tant French official, kisses her. Then
he discovers he has kissed an un-
known woman - the usher had
placed him in the wrong seat.

Present are Monique's father, M.

role, although unimportant is played
by Donald Meek so that it sparkles
with humor.
Wanting to attend the trial. but
never getting there, is Hugh Herbert,
who as Toto is responsible for the

call his ever being funnier. Roland
