The Inevitable Monsieur Dubois (French: L'Inévitable Monsieur Dubois) is a 1943 French comedy film directed by Pierre Billon and starring Annie Ducaux, André Luguet and Germaine Reuver.[1] It was shot at the Studio François 1 in Paris. The film's sets were designed by the art director Roland Quignon. Similar in style to screwball comedy, it was produced and released during the German Occupation and was a popular success. It was subsequently remade as the 1947 Swedish film Dinner for Two.
