- Anne Vernon, Edouard et Caroline, France, 1950. Daniel Gelin was the penniless pianist and Ludmilla, Sophie Desmarets, Jeanne Moreau and Micheline Presle were seen for his wealthier wife.. However, auteurJacques Becker had not forgotten Edith Vignaud from uis 1945 Falbalas. She had since worked abroad. The UK’s Rank Organisation gave her a contract, four films, and a new name (“Edith is for old biddies… and who can pronounce Vignaud?”). Hollywood was not so smitten: one film and a shredded Universal deal. And so it was Anne Vernon who sparkled as Caroline. She and Gelin were The Couple of the hour – and witty again in Becker’s next, Rue de l’ l’Estrapade, 1952.
