Deep Dive

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Cultural

Part of a 90s wave of French comedies mocking both French provincialism and American excess—see also 'Les Visiteurs' but with more sunscreen.

Trivia

Emma de Caunes was 22 here, already a nepo-baby target (her dad is Antoine de Caunes), but genuinely carries her scenes.
