The Sucker (aka Le Corniaud)
_“The funniest fraud a fall-guy ever fell for!” _ In this Franco-Italian gangster parody, a shopkeeper on his way to an Italian holiday suffers a crash that totals his car. The culprit can only compensate his ruined trip by driving an American friend’s car from Naples to Bordeaux, but as it happens to be filled with such contraband as stolen money, jewelry and drugs, the involuntary and unwitting companions in crime soon attract all but recreational attention from the “milieu”.
AroView: This quintessential French farce finds the affable Bourvil tricked into driving a Cadillac to Bordeaux containing thousands of dollars of jewelry and heroine, with gangsters in hot pursuit. A riot from start to finish.
