Nice old French film about a somewhat simple but honest man, who, however, has to deal with setbacks every time and therefore always ends up in court and has to lose out.

Was in the Louis de Funes box, but De Funes only has a very small role, because it is one of the very first films in which he participated.

Nice movie to watch once.

A six or three stars.

Pretty lame farce, which you don't have to watch for (the small supporting actor of) de Funes, although I often (and so here too) secretly have to laugh at his mean face. There are scenes that are quite fun and the bad luck that befalls the title hero is so improbably unfortunate that it becomes somewhat entertaining. Film lasts a bit too long, is too predictable and the term farce seems to have been invented for this film. Therefore 2.5 stars. Least film from the de Funes box (that's probably where all 11 votes come from).
