The Matrimonial Bed (1930)

It is the fifth anniversary of Adolphe Noblet's death in a trainwreck. His servant and friends still worship him and don't much care for his widow Juliet's second husband Gustave, with whom she has recently had a child. Juliet's friends recommend that she use a new hairdresser, Leopold Trebel, but when this womanizing coiffeur arrives, he turns out to be Adolphe, suffering from amnesia. A doctor restores his memory using hypnosis, but the process wipes out everything that has happened to him over the last five years. Adolphe thinks he has been unconscious for only a few hours and the doctor tries to keep the truth from him, thinking the shock could kill him. This becomes even more difficult as Leopold's wife, with whom he has had two sets of twins, shows up and insists that he is Leopold. Gustave finally tells Adolphe/Leopold the truth and he is left with the decision of which man, and in which family, he wants to be.
