Wiki.
Patricia is a 1942 French comedy film directed by Paul Mesnier and starring Gabrielle Dorziat, Louise Carletti and Georges Grey. The film's sets were designed by the art director Roland Quignon. Despite being shot on a limited budget it was one of the most popular films during the Occupation of France. It was closely aligned with Vichy policy in its portrayal of female characters from two different generations taking part in the forging of a new France.
