what are you talking about
If we know Mr. Parisot as the emblematic customer of Camping Paradis, we don’t know how the mascot of Tom Delorme and his team spends the rest of the year.
At home in Colmar, this young retiree is dedicated to intense cycling and indulges his passion for crime fiction and detective films. When his cycling companion dies in a car accident, Christian Pariseau is convinced it’s murder!
With the support of a young gendarme who will help him beyond any procedure, Parisot aims to unmask the killer in a castle inhabited by members of an Alsace noble family.
In the middle of this gallery of colorful portraits, everyone is trying to hide their secrets. Because everyone has a mobile phone. Each of them could be a killer… Will amateur detective Christian Pariseau be able to unmask his friend’s killer before he claims a new victim?
Monsieur Parizot airs this Tuesday, October 7 from 21:10 on TF1
who is he with
In this TV movie, Patrick Parrault again plays the role of the inimitable Christian Parisot. As determined and sinister as ever, the camp becomes Hercule Poirot for the duration of the TV movie. Next to him we find Clemens Lassalas, whose fans will be happy to see him on screen.
The young woman lends her qualities to Alexandra Bauer, a gendarme with a big heart, who will help our hero solve the investigation. Calm, organized and dedicated to his profession, he offers our hero an interesting counterpart.
Carol Richert (Clem) is also part of the adventure as she plays Astrid de Saint Ulrich, the widow of Pariso’s great friend. Witty and stubborn, he offers some particularly funny scenes.
Diane Daninier, who is currently casting Plus belle la vie, encore plus belle, and Pierrick Tournier have been cast as Jean Dominique’s children. Firmin slips into the shoes of Richard Josiane, a servant of the St. Ulrich family, while Olivier Sitruc portrays Senclair.
Meanwhile, Charlie Joyrkin plays Jennifer, and Søren Prevost becomes Hans for the duration of the fiction.
is it worth watching
After months of teasing, the TV movie based on the character Mr. Parisot found in Camping Paradis is finally being broadcast tonight on TF1! Especially for this autumn season, this unit is visually very successful: the colors are beautiful, the castle is grand and the natural environment is very noticeable.
Truly behind closed doors, this investigation led by our favorite camper will appeal to those who have been hooked on the Camping Paradis episodes. Far from settled in his home in Colmar, Parisot is true to himself, even when he’s not on vacation.
Mischievous, highly curious and even a little invasive, he is above all very lovable, and even more so in this TV movie, in which everything has been thought out to give him his own adventure. Heavily inspired by the world of Agatha Christie, here we find all the keys to a good murder mystery.
Of course, the story is well told, but above all it is the Parizot/Bauer duo that stand out in their contact with this young woman who loves cycling, who, far from judging her, accepts her little quirks and discovers them. His investigative talent with tenderness.
Alongside them we meet a gallery of characters who match Christian’s extravagance. Carol Richert is also fantastic in her role as the grieving but eccentric widow who sees signs everywhere.
And if we may sometimes be disappointed by the conclusion of this type of investigation, we are not. We should even say that we have not seen the end. We only regret a few clichés that could certainly have been avoided, but perhaps ultimately were to be expected with a character like Pariseau.
Also delicious are the many accounts of Tom Delormes (Laurent Ournack) about the director of the camp where he spent all his vacations for 35 years. We feel how attached the pensioner is to him, which gives him another dimension. Patrick Parro is again excellent in his role. He even manages to make her more vulnerable, more sensitive and more open in this TV movie dedicated to her.
Overall, a very enjoyable movie to watch. Unpretentious, it will give the whole family a great time because it is well composed. This could definitely become a fall meeting place for fans Camping Paradise.
It remains to be seen if this will just be a one-off event or if TF1 will turn this first attempt into an actual series.
