It's worth noting that early prints can be quite hard to find, which adds to its mystique and appeal among those interested in Guitry's work. The film has been released in various formats, but good quality copies are still relatively scarce. Collectors often appreciate the historical context and the unique perspective it provides on Parisian life in the late 1930s.
