She plays a show-girl who takes part in a modernistic ballet mechanique and, dressed in silver tights, represented the figure of Speed on a radiator cap of a gigantic automobile.

Marius, Alexander Korda, Marcel Pagnol, Raimu, 1931.

Écrit par Marcel Pagnol d'après sa pièce éponyme, représentée pour la première fois le 9 mars 1929 sur la scène du théâtre de Paris, Marius est le premier volet de la Trilogie marseillaise, selon l'appellation générique donnée aux trois tragédies de Pagnol. Il précède Fanny sorti en 1932 et César, sorti en 1936.

Synopsis : Marseille – Le bar de la Marine – Marius est un jeune homme que la mer exalte. Il aime son père César, bourru et bonhomme, il aime aussi la petite Fanny qui vend des coquillages devant le bar de César. Depuis son enfance, l’envie de courir le monde l’enflamme. Il lutte contre sa folie. Il ne veut pas abandonner son père qui en mourrait peut-être de chagrin, ni la petite Fanny qui ne pense qu’à lui. Et pourtant la mer est là…
