the madame gambles (1951)

aka Madame Louise.
"I'm afraid that trade is a little slack."
Madame Louise's, a dressmaking shop managed by Mr Pastry (Richard Hearne), and his assistant (Petula Clark) is taken over by gambler Mr Trout (Garry Marsh) when he wins it in a bet, and needs somewhere to hide. The duo find out that they have six months to repay the debt, or the place is Trouts permanently.
Mildly comic affair, that has one redeeming feature, seeing Petula Clark acting.
