Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was co-director Gilles Lellouche's first feature before becoming a major French star—he basically willed himself into the industry by making a movie about willing things into existence.
Released during France's mid-2000s obsession with 'losers who win,' Narco rode the same wave as Tanguy and The Aristocrats but with way more face-planting.
