Judgement Day (1940 film)

Ferdinand Strubel wants his daughter Marianne to marry the son of wealthy brewery owner Baron von Schnackenberg. However Marianne has fallen in love with teacher Leopold, despite her father already setting the wedding day. Leopold has an idea when he reads of the passing of Halley's Comet the day before the marriage is due to take place. He convinces Ferdinand Strubel that the world will end when the comet hits, and hopes that the coming judgement day will lead Strubel to call off the wedding. ==Cast==
