Pardon Mon Affaire

This is a story of a bashful philanderer who you can't help but hope gets caught in his misdeeds, and hilariously, things constantly go wrong for him. The humor is smart, and it took me a good half-hour to really get into it, probably because Jean Rochefort plays his role like he's the world's biggest sweetheart. But once I got into it, I was laughing non-stop. Thanks to the final scene, I'll always think of this movie when I stand in front of the Arc de Triomphe in Paris. (10/11/2022)

A nice comedy that doesn't provoke volleys of laughter by someone hitting something, falling, slapping someone or being slapped by someone, but by natural dialogues and polished scenes in general. But if the main role was played by someone other than Jean Rochefort, on whose ordinary little man it all rests, I don't know.___P.S. I think the dubbing by Vladimír Fišer helped the film a lot.
