NOTES
Originally released as a motion picture in 1960
A brash and precocious ten-year-old comes to Paris for a whirlwind weekend with her rakish uncle. Based on a popular novel by Raymond Queneau that had been considered unadaptable it is a bit of stream of consciousness slapstick, wall to wall with visual gags, editing tricks and effects
