 With an international cast, art deco design, and some spectacular location filming in the Paris Bourse, "L'Argent" was a substantial work which effectively marked the end of silent film-making for L'Herbier.He had been responsible for some of the period's most innovative developments in his own films, and he also provided support to other filmmakers such as Louis Delluc, whose final film "L'Inondation" (1923) was financed by Cinégraphic.He also gathered around him a group of regular collaborators, including Claude Autant-Lara, Philippe Hériat, and Jaque Catelain (who became his lifelong friend and appeared in twenty of his films).
