... View More'Fleur d'Oseille' ('fleur' is French for 'flower') is a gangster-crime movie. Although showing some light-hearted humor, its bottom line is made by gangs of though guys hunting after a hidden treasure. With shooting, death and violence all over.In this respect 'Fleur d'Oseille' makes an entertaining watch. Nevertheless, director Georges Lautner clearly made an error by choosing Mireille Darc as his female lead.An environment like this just isn't Mireille's trade. On top of that, she doesn't convince as a young mother. These disappointments in Darc's performance cannot be compensated by her fairly extensive nude appearance in a sunny garden, suggesting paradise.
... View MoreI have to say that I'm always astounded and saddened by the fact that most people, apart from the french i hope, are blissfully unaware of the existence of one of the greatest french comedy duo of all time, and I'm talking about screenwriter Michel Audiard and director Georges Lautner, i mean, how can the geniuses behind such great flicks as: "Le guignolo", "L'incorrigible", "Les tontons flingueurs", "Fleur d'oseille" or "Laisse allez c'est une valse", to name but a few, still go unnoticed ?! I do realise that those movies are incredibly hard to dub, and require a little knowledge of french culture, especially to enjoy the wonderful dialogues from Audiard, but still, the injustice amazes me, so please, check those movies, and you can start with Fleur d'oseille, who is a delightful gangster comedy, absolutely typical of Audiard, Lautner, and of course, the sixties and France. I'm crazy about it, i always have, and hopefully, you will too.
