Every day AlloCiné recommends watching a movie on TV (again). Tonight: Jacques Villere François Pinion in leather.
In 1998, Francis Weber directed his play “Le Dîner de cons” for film. Actor Jacques Villere plays the naive François Pinion, whom he has played on stage since 1993. On screen he is surrounded by the same hilarious actors: from Thierry Lermitt as a petty and selfish bourgeois to Frances Haster. By Daniel Prevost, who shines in the role of Lucien Chevalier, a diligent tax auditor.
Dinner of Fools This is one of the rare French comedies – such as Les Trois Frères or La Chèvre – which you can watch almost endlessly so as not to get tired. His story behind closed doors does not suffer thanks to the accuracy of the actors in Dead Time, the rhythm of the narrative, the avalanche of floods and his sharp dialogues (misunderstandings with Marlene Sasser, Belgian producer and the show’s main moment: a call to Just LeBlanc!).
Nominated six times for the 24th Caesar Ceremony in 1999, the film won three awards: Best Actor for Jacques Wheeler, Best Actor in a Supporting Role for Daniel Prevost, and Best Screenplay for Frances Weber. With the participation of more than 9 million cinemas, Dinner of Fools It ranks second in the French box office in 1998 after the Titanic. On AlloCiné it has an average viewer rating of 4.2 out of 5.
