Six Hours to Lose ({{langx|fr|Six heures à perdre}}) is a 1947 French romance film directed by Alex Joffé and Jean Lévitte and starring André Luguet, Denise Grey and Pierre Larquey. The film has no relation to the eponymous novel of Robert Brasillach, edited posthumously in 1953.
The film's sets were designed by the art director Paul-Louis Boutié and Guy de Gastyne.
Plot
A traveller is stuck in an unknown town because his connecting train will only arrive in six hours. He decides to kill time by taking a stroll. He is not prepared to get confused with somebody else. In fact the citizens are eagerly awaiting the visit of a famous man and the clueless traveller is his doppelgänger. Soon he experiences what that means.
