His theatrical career is closer to an end than a beginning, and a planned video release on September 11th could speed things up. But a little extra always makes an impression. The greatest French success since we did the good lord? In 2014 and the thirteenth French feature film in history to cross the ten million mark, Artus’ comedy has reached another level in recent days.
The feature film took advantage of the weekend to beat Three Men and a Bassinet to enter our region’s top 10 of the biggest French hits of all time. He gained another place, overtaking Taxi 2 and taking the ninth position. As of today and probably until further notice.
With 10,320,712 admissions recorded since May 1st, Un p’tit truc en plus is now behind Le Corniaud. That he will have a hard time collecting, as the Gerard Urs comedy took 11,743,525 viewers on the road alongside the Burville-Louis de Funes duo. Even if Artus and his partners generate more than 100,000 scratched tickets a week, the mission seems almost impossible right now.
But you never know with this movie that made a specialty of beating the odds. Nevertheless, his career will remain remarkable in every way, as he broke several records along the way. Starting with the highest score ever recorded for a first feature film.
