the film includes some members of les branquignols, and some of their popular stage comedy and musical sketches. the troupe was credited in the movie' s trailer. four of them were in the top cast :
dhéry also got a few small parts in films such as marcel carné' s les enfants du paradis (1944) and claude autant - lara' s sylvia and the ghost (1945), in which jacques tati made his first appearance (and disappearance) in a feature .
in 1949, dhéry and his wife, colette brosset, founded a joyous troupe of comics, musicians and singers called les branquignols (
the crazies
), which, at various times, included louis de funès, jean lefebvre, jean carmet, julien carette, jacqueline maillan, pierre olaf and michel serrault. almost immediately, dhéry put the first show on film, in which he played a french cowboy .
premier film de robert dhery et de la célèbre équipe de l' époque, celle des branquignols. l' immense succès de leur revue de music - hall à paris nous vaut cette adaptation cinématographique, qui n' est qu' une suite de tableaux souvent longuets et ennuyeux. a sa sortie, le film fut un excellent succès commercial, drainant les foules attirées par certainement scènes (légèrement) dénudées... urltoken
le petit baigneur (1968), a slapstick vehicle for a wildly animated de funès, and vos gueules, les mouettes! (shut up, seagulls! , 1974), with dhéry and brosset, were both mainly for home consumption. at the opéra comique in paris, dhéry proved an appropriate director for productions of offenbach' s robinson crusoe and the grand duchess of gerolstein, and rossini' s comte ory, with its men disguised as nuns, reminiscent of a sketch from one of dhéry' s revues .

. the programme consists of lively comedy routines, feisty dance numbers and sensational beauty parades - something for everyone in fact. the show' s title does however cause some concern and detective michel leboeuf must attend the rehearsals to ensure that the show does not contain anything too risqué. robert mistakes leboeuf for one of his comedy performers and offers him a prominent part in the revue. .
. whilst there is not much plot to speak off, mostly a succession of music hall acts of varying degrees of charm and sophistication, the film offers an enticing nostalgia trip, taking us back to a time when live entertainment was as popular as the cinema. and watching the film you wonder how this could possibly have been the case. protracted beauty parades, repetitive prat falls, hopelessly inept musicians - these were once the stock in trade of the french music hall but they are unlikely to be considered quality entertainment by today' s standards .
dated though the film is, it does abound with a sense of fun and provides a lasting tribute to the music hall. the icing on the cake is the ensemble of great comedy performers that make up dhéry' s celebrated company, including colette brosset, michel serrault, jacqueline maillan and louis de funès, all of whom would feature prominently in mainstream french cinema in the years to come, none more so than de funès. another comedy giant, francis blanche, is also roped in to lend his support. this was the first film in which michel serrault appeared - he has a non - speaking part as a retarded musician. whilst robert dhéry was most active in the theatre, he directed half a dozen other films for the cinema, which include

west end theatre - goers who were around in the mid - 1950s are likely to remember a hit french revue called la plume de ma tante, which entertained audiences at the garrick theatre for three years, before being equally successful in new york. the show' s creator, director and star was robert dhéry, who has died aged 83. full of zany musical numbers and sketches, la plume de ma tante was france' s answer to the crazy gang .
when it opened for a three - year run on broadway, louis kronenberger, the american drama critic, wrote :
it spoke a sort of compound - fractured english and was in all other aspects as french as it was funny. the question of speech hardly mattered anyhow, because it stressed the international comic language of leers and leaps, pratfalls and double takes. in contrast to the season' s mechanical gag shows, that alone would call for thanks. but, with la plume, the quality of merci is not strained, the show shone by more than contrast. la plume had three great merits: madness, precision and charm .
perhaps the most memorable sketch was the one that ended the first act, in which four monks attempt, in a madly acrobatic manner, to pull four bell ropes. this kind of sketch came from dhéry' s background in the circus and music hall .
born robert léon fourrey, in the small town of dhéry (hence his adopted name), he joined a travelling circus at the age of 14. after studying at the celebrated rené simon drama school in paris, he began performing in cabaret and music hall .
the following year came la plume de ma tante. the queen went to see it in london, and the cast won tony awards in new york. at a charity night to help the victims of the flood disaster in fréjus in 1959, rex harrison, claudette colbert and laurence olivier took roles in the show .
after the dazzling long run, dhéry returned to the cinema with la belle américaine (1961), in which he played a parisian factory worker who manages to buy a huge cadillac (
the beautiful american
of the title), at a bargain price, for the birthday of his wife (brosset). however, it gets him into all sorts of trouble. in his films, of which this was the most widely seen, dhéry retained his madcap comic skills, but only in short bursts; unlike the supercar (seen in colour at the finale), dhéry was not built for long distances .
he produced, directed, wrote and starred in allez france! (1964), which followed the insane adventures of a french rugby supporter (dhéry) who crosses the channel for the england - france match, gets lost, finds himself at a dentist' s, and in a policeman' s uniform. most of the humour, which played on french and english misunderstandings, was as subtle as a rugby scrum and almost as funny. but dhéry, with support from his wife, diana dors and arthur mullard, was a likeable clown, who would always come up with surprising visual gags .
he is survived by colette brosset, his fellow artist and wife since 1942 .

ouch! this movie is so bad! what were they thinking? it' s strictly a showcase for beautiful women. in fact, its only originality is probably the amount of nudity for the time .
louis de funès' talent is wasted. he' s reduce to imitate a chicken. which is funny, but to carry it on for the entire film is absurd and stupid. oh! and by the way... the musical numbers are awful. skip this one, by all mean .
