This is where 'Poutine' was concocted.

A culinary delight of the highest order, no doubt!

0:47:42 Gene Tierney is enough for me, but Paul Muni ( once called the actor's actor) is a double treat. Vincent Price gives a great performance, The 'O Canada' anthem is based on a piece by Mozart.

Please add Gene Tierney to the tags.

Thanks for uploading this hard to find film! Much appreciated. (By the way, in your tags you really should have listed Gene Tierney as well!) Cheers!
