As its second production of the season, the French Talking Films Committee will present "Le Bal," by Ireno Nemirovaki tomorrow and Wednesday at 2.30, 5.15, and 8.30 o'clock in the Institute of Geographical Exploration. The picture, which had its formal premiere in New York City on Tuesday, September 27, was produced by Marcel Vandal.
The plot of the production hinges about a poor shopkeeper's family, which has risen to great wealth through a lucky number in a lottery. After tasting the pleasures acquired by its riches, the family returns to its former mode of life, which it considers far more enjoyable. Andre Lefaur, who created the original role of Topaze, in the recent play of the same name, which was produced in Franco before coming to this country, has the lead in "Le Bal."
