Louis De Funes Edition

No one understood how to portray explosive fits of rage in such a humorous way like Louis de Funès, entertaining audiences for generations. With the comedies "Louis, the Rascal" (1965) and "The Big Party" (1966), de Funès became France's most popular comedian within two years and achieved success in European countries with his timeless comedies. In his films, he embodies the archetype of a petty bourgeois who bows to his superiors while tyrannizing his subordinates with his fits of rage. Now, the four timeless comedies "Louis, the Rascal," "The Big Party," "Breast or Thigh," and "Louis and His Alien Cabbages" are being released in a Blu-ray edition.
