Ludwig Berger directed Early to Bed and I by Day - You by Night

Early to Bed is a 1933 British-German romantic comedy film directed by Ludwig Berger and starring Heather Angel, Fernand Gravey and Edmund Gwenn.

Production

The film was made as a co-production between the German giant UFA and Gaumont British. As was common at the time, the film was made as a multiple-language production with three separate versions modelled on the German original I by Day, You by Night. Early to Bed was made at the Babelsberg Studio in Berlin, along with the French and German versions. Robert Stevenson acted as a supervisor. The casting of the comedian Sonnie Hale in a supporting role, slanted the British version in a more humorous direction than its counterparts.

Synopsis

A young waiter and a manicurist share the same room without ever meeting – because she works in the day and he at night. They encounter each other for the first time, and fall in love, without realising that they are already roommates.
