In 1932 Warners re-shot this same comedy with French-speaking actors (replacing the original performers), delivering all their dialog in French, at the same Hollywood studio, in the same sets, and using the same script (translated into French), under the French title "Le bluffeur" (The Bluffer). Subtitles werent yet in vogue, so Warners gave French-speaking audiences a parallel version they could understand, played mostly by French actors. Powells star part was played by Andre Luguet, Brents by Lucienne Radisse, Sidneys by Torben Meyer, Kibbees by Andre Cheron, McHughs by Jacques Jou-Jerville, Middletons by Georges Renavent, Beresfords by Christian Rub, and Littlefields by Emile Chautard. Meyer, Renavent, Rub, and Chautard were already permanently ensconced in Hollywood, while most of the other French-speaking actors were imported from Paris just for these parallel French-language versions in the early 1930s. When subtitles and dubbing were soon "perfected", the US studios ceased making parallel versions like "Le bluffeur".
