9/10

"A deliciously stupid and life-enhancing farce, and at the same time a nostalgic homage to farce, with lovely music by René Cloërec, and a clever, daring mixing-up of theatre stage and dressing-rooms and audience and film. After the slideshow adverts at the interval, the maid answers the phone while the stage hands are still preparing the scenery. Their hands and feet are in a whirl, whether it's Julien Carette frenetically pedalling sideways down the stairs negotiating his medal, Jean Desailly trying to do his maths or Danielle Darrieux crossing the room like an overwound clockwork toy. ..."
