Let's Get Married (French: Marions-nous) is a 1931 French comedy film directed by Louis Mercanton and starring Alice Cocéa, Fernand Gravey and Marguerite Moreno.[1] It was made at the Joinville Studios in Paris by the French subsidiary of Paramount Pictures as a remake of the company's 1930 film Her Wedding Night. Such multiple-language versions were common in the early years of sound film before dubbing became commonplace.
