Directed by: René Clair
An impoverished artist discovers he has purchased a winning lottery ticket at the very moment his creditors come to collect. The only problem is, the ticket is in the pocket of his coat. . . which he left at his girlfriend’s apartment. . . who gave the coat to a man hiding from the police. . . who sells the coat to an opera singer who uses it during a performance. By turns charming and inventive, René Clair’s lyrical masterpiece had a profound impact on not only the Marx Brothers and Charlie Chaplin, but on the American musical as a whole.

Le Million
Le Million is presented in its original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.33:1. This new digital transfer was created from a 35mm composite fine-grain master positive on the high-definition Spirit Datacine. The image was further enhanced using the MTI Digital Restoration System, removing 46,450 instances of film dirt and debris.
