LE CORNIAUD - One of the classics of French Comedy from the 1960's, "Le Corniaud' appears regularly on late night French TV. The film features 2 of France's greatest comedians, both now dead, Louis de Funes and Bourvil (real name André Raimbourg). De Funès manic gesticulations coupled with Bourvil's apparent naiveness in a sombre affaire of driving a car loaded with contraband across the Italian border and into France provide a never-ending series of hilarious situations against the 1960's backcloth of carefree life on the Mediterranean. As they say "they just don't make 'em like that any more". This film together with "La Grande Vadrouille" which features the same stars, constitute milestones in the history of popular French comic cinema. 1964

LA GRANDE VADROUILLE - An allied bomberplane is shot down over Paris by the Germans. Its crew (Terry Thomas as a flight captain) land there by parachute. With the help of some French civilians (Louis de Funès in the role of a conductor and Bourvil as a house painter) they try to escape over the demarcation line into the southern part of France, still not occupied by the Germans. 1964 (Also Known As: "Don't Look Now - We're Being Shot At", 1966 (USA) "Don't Look Now, We've Been Shot At", 1966)

THE BRAIN - (Le Cerveau) is a tongue-in-cheek caper film with more twists and turns than a rural Oregon highway. David Niven plays The Brain, so named because it was he who mapped out the British Great Train Robbery (it says here). Now The Brain plans to lift a fortune in NATO money, which is being shipped by train from France to Belgium. Complicating matters are a pair of free-lance thugs (Jean-Paul Belmondo and Bourvil), who hope to steal The Brain's plans and claim the money for themselves. A plot device derived from The Lavender Hill Mob involves a 50-foot replica of the Statue of Liberty. An amusing closing-credits bit caps this exhilarating exercise. Also stars Eli Wallach. 1969
