...funny = La Chevre.
The strory of a man ( Richard ) who is just struck with unluck..very funny.
Follow Ups:
An incredibly funny Richard's film. The other one that is a must is the Tall Blond Man with One Black Shoe.But I have to admit it - out of almost 50 films that he made I saw only a small portion. Incredibly hard to find his films here.
That is pure French humor..I saw this film years ago..gld I had a second look at it...
The Blond was funny,too,but this one is in his genre..almost perfect...both actors are at they best... Gerard was not That big star,with a big head..then back...
The "original" Toy was great, and of course the recent "A Chef in Love".BTW - how do you feel about Louis De Funès? Have you seen the Fantomas films?
Curious you ask..I had just a second look ,too, at " La Folie des Grandeurs " quite a few nice scene..but a bad film,dated..Louis de Funes,could be funny..for a little time..but his role repeat and repeat..always the same...I remember as, a kid,seeing him ,on the Promenade Des Anglais,in Nice,in front of the Negresco..alone with a " bad mood Face"..you never had wanted to ask him for an Autograph..( witch I never would do...)La Pianiste,just came in, have a look tomorrow and I am already .. curious...did you see it ?
PS: I have big problems with the novel of Chekov...( only read two )
I shall keep checking on La Pianiste. Regarding Chekhov - I would definitely recommend some short stories first.But I have no idea whether a foreigner can get the tru flavor of his writing, as it is incredibly tied to the Russian realities.
That is what I thought.
I start with short storys.the first one was " le Duel" I found it very cold,very intelectual,with a these an antithese and an synthese,very coldly writen revealing the first sign of the Stalinism ( remember the jewish character HE is the faschist )
I found the Russian soul ( Or what IThink it is) present,the being torn apart...but could not identify with them as I can with Flaubert,maupassant....I could connect with Tolstoi..
And I read " My Life " witch in my eyes is not a story with a logical flowing story... cold very cold..bitter more of an moralist with a big envy for justice and showing the limitation of the bourgoisie...
Too much of politic ..too less of an enjoyable story.
Till now.
I will pursuit.
