Wissenswertes

Bifur 3 is a 1945 French drama film directed by Maurice Cam and starring René Dary, Raymond Aimos and Martine Carol. Shooting first began on the film in 1939, but delays due to the Second World War and the Occupation of France meant it wasn't completed until after the Liberation. Many of the original cast and crew were replaced. It was shot at the Photosonor Studios in Paris. The film's sets were designed by the art director Robert Dumesnil.

Production

Shooting began in 1939, was interrupted in 1941; filming resumed in Paris in May 1944 and some scenes were shot on location in Marseille in August 1944.

The film's production was troubled for various reasons. On August 20, 1944, the actor Raymond Aimos, who had one of the main roles in the film, was killed during the Liberation of Paris. There was to film a few scenes that he should have appeared. The scenario was then slightly modified; the last scenes were shot in October and November 1944.

Martine Carol herself was a last minute substitute for an unknown actress who eventually declined the role; and Robert Le Vigan had fled to South America before filming was completed.
