A happy and very amusing film which carried me along in cheerful mode. Yes, it has some hints of Monsieur Hulot but goes off along its own original path.
Very individual film made by its two co-stars, classic French Burlesque in the style of Buster Keaton or other silent comedians, but in glorious technicolour.
Taste in comedy is very personal thing, but I agree with LA's review; very individual, almost silent movie in effect at points, and with some wonderful touches - look for the tie rack at the crematorium, and for who helps when the heroine is sure that she doesn't need a guide out of the cemetery...
