Oscar
1967 / Comedy / France
Perhaps the most amusing movie starring de Funes is a sitcom that features continuous laughs. In actuality, it is based on an almost absurd tale of a stingy, wealthy guy who is duped by everyone around him, including staff, his daughter, his wife, and random onlookers. De Funes, on the other hand, demonstrates flawless professionalism. Each of his gestures causes the observer to react right away. The heroes of de Funes are perpetually irate and curse, which heightens the comedic effect, whereas Jacques Tati was typically silent in the frame. In reality, our superior dubbing contributed to the audience’s joy. Additionally, the majority of Soviet viewers had never even heard de Funes’ actual voice, who was voiced by actor Vladimir Kenigson the most frequently.
Taxi
1998 / Crime, Comedy, Action / France
The same Besson production, “Taxi,” is a comedy-action film in which the protagonist manages to laugh quickly while still flirting on the phone with his fiancée, who is portrayed by the then-unfamous Marion Cotillard.
8 Women
2002 / Comedy, Mystery, Musical, Crime / France, Italy
Amazing musical performances and an ensemble of the top French actresses from several generations can be found in François Ozon’s grim comedy. Even though the jokes in this collection are rarely amusing, they are always clever and timely. As a result, the 8 Women movie continues to be the most well-known of Ozon’s productions.
Le Grand Blond Avec Une Chaussure Noire
1972 / Detective, Comedy / France
An absent-minded violinist gets mistaken for a secret agent in yet another “Bond” parody. He defeats all foes while evading the lethal traps that were set for him. However, it soon became obvious that Pierre Richard had become a new, major celebrity in this must-watch French comedy.
The Fifth Element
1997 / Action, Adventure / France, USA
The most humorous picture in Luc Besson’s filmography and the most expensive movie in French history were both made in English but wholly with French funds. French-style humour is used by American celebrities, and it turns out that they enjoy themselves greatly. The fact that the movie was advertised in quotes outside of France is not a coincidence.
