The story

Willoughby Quimby (Albert Gran), a middle-aged American millionaire, has been living a carefree, hedonistic life in Paris for the past decade. He originally came over at the start of Prohibition, leaving behind his wife and young daughter, Elisabeth. Since then, he’s immersed himself in the city’s pleasures — cocktails at Harry’s American Bar, a string of Parisian girlfriends, and an easy camaraderie with his drinking companion Freddie Fletcher (Matt Moore), a perpetually cheerful fellow who is always missing boats and ordering dry martinis.
