25 years ago and still remember some of the gags.., 28 June 2004
Author: (benjaminknox@hotmail.com) from States

Hi I saw this film late one night with my parents and sisters. I don't think any of us expected it to be what it was, as I recall, and i was only 13 when i saw it ( first and last time too) but I do remember laughing my **** off all the way through it. Now obviously for a 13 year old I probably missed the proper jokes and only saw the sight gags ( as it was not even subtitled as I recall). But one which came to mind recently was when Shell on the current Big Brother (UK) show was cooking and turned around to show that she has no keks on under her chefs apron....much laughter in the house, but it brought to mind a similar scene in Hotel De La Plage when one of the lads is doing the BBQ on the beach(?)does the whole scene and then last minute, turns around and hey presto, no keks......now that..to a 13 years old was damn funny!

I'd love to see this film again, but no-one ever knows what the hell I'm talking about....

Read the summary by j hailey as it sums it up really well, it's a really good french farce with a very summery feel good factor.

Be nice to see it again at 39..
