On an otherwise normal day, Etienne (Jean Rochefort) sees something that stops him dead in his tracks: a gorgeous woman (Anny Duperey) in a billowing red dress. Long after she has left his vision, her memory continues to haunt his mind. Soon Etienne -- who is, or was, happily married -- decides he must sleep with her. Helping Etienne snare his elusive lady in red are his three bumbling buddies, one of whom, Bouly (Victor Lanoux), knows a thing or two about infidelity.

Audience Member Do ivota úsp?ného mue po ?ty?icítce vstoupí ne?ekan? atraktivní mladá ena, která rázem rozvrátí jeho dosavadní spo?ádaný systém. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Paris in the 70's...The weather is fantastic. Sun, sun, sun everywhere. Love affairs are everywhere. And Jean Rochefort monologues are awesome! A movie for the French: very witty with many play-on-words. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member J'adore ce film et sa suite, deux des meilleures comédies des années 70, une version moderne du vaudeville vieillot, qui sait marier les codes du genre avec une description plus moderne des femmes et de l'homosexualité. Et puis c'est très drôle. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member j'adore ce film! Il est super marque 70's mais cela fait son charme! Le casting est un truc de "foufou": Brasseur, Bedos, Lanoux, Rochefort... (un peu le Asterix aux jeux olympiques d'avant, mais avec un scenario!) Je le trouve toujours aussi drole. C'est le film de bande par excellence! Rochefort perche sur le rebord de la fenetre presque a poil, alors que le mari de sa maitresse rentre inopportunement et qui voit debarquer la TV, les pompiers 10etages plus bas car ils croient tous a une tentative de succide... Juste trop drole; merci Mr jean Rochefort (un grand acteur...dans tous les sens lol) (pour ce classement j'y inclu aussi sa suite "nous irons tous au paradis" pour faire comme tout le monde et pouvoir parler de "saga Yves Robert) Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Read all reviews
