French Without Tears is a 1939 British comedy film directed by Anthony Asquith and starring Ray Milland.

[1][2] The love affairs are depicted of three young Englishmen at a language "cramming" school in the south of France.

The import of Ellen Drew and Ray Milland from Hollywood ensured the film's success world-wide.

"[1] Writing for Allmovie, Hal Erickson wrote, "much of the wit and zest of the original stage production has been blunted for the screen, moving one critic to describe French Without Tears as 'Comedy Without Laughs'.

In all fairness, however, the film does boast a hilarious drunk scene in a musty old French wine cellar.
