Don’t Look Now ... We’re Being Shot At! (La grande vadrouille)

Five Funny French Films

Louis de Funès and Bourvil team up again—after appearing in The Sucker (Le corniard)—for this timeless comedic masterpiece about several ordinary Frenchmen experiencing an epic voyage through wartime-occupied France. They aim to get to the free zone and help British pilots avoid German captivity along the way. A monument of French comedy and a massive box-office hit, this movie captivated audiences with its witty humor, memorable characters, and poignant human connections.
