Treize a Table (Thirteen at Table) was based on the hit play by Marc Gilbert Sauvajon. Micheline Presle stars as a woman suffering from Triskadecaphobia -- fear of the number 13. No matter how hard she tries, Micheline cannot avoid the "fatal" number, even in the safety of her own home. The humor arises from the heroine's efforts to make certain that she never has 13 guests at her dinner table -- even if it means inviting an ex-lover to sit in on one occasion. Fernand Gravey co-stars as the former swain, while Mischa Auer offers another of his "professional grouch" routines.
