Louise Chevalier is wrongly quoted, according to an addendum (Systematically resumed without having been verified, in particular to Tulard) in her filmography in the "Letter of the comedians" (1998). The error results in fact from a confusion with the comedienne Dominique Marcas, who appears well and truly in the film as petrol pump attendant.
