A really funny movie, in my opinion the best of Louis de Funès' movies. For everyone who hasn't seen him yet: You're really missing out on a treat. But watch it in french (with subtitles if necessary) because it is so much better in the original!!!!!
Louis de Funès was the comedian of the french television and is still extremely popular there as in many other countries like Belgium or Germany (in Germany at least a bit) I can recommend every movie he has made, but this one is still my favourite!!

This is one of the best comedies in the French cinema. Louis de Funes plays the role of Victor Pivert, an industrialist with a Napoleonic complex and a tendency for racist viewpoints, who inadvertantly teams up with, Mohamed Larbi Slimane, an exiled Arab political oposition candidate who is on the run from hired assassins in Paris. Pivert and Slimane masquerade as two Jewish rabbis in order to save their lives. What follows are hillarious scenes taking place in the Jewish section of Paris as well as in the surrounding areas. Watch out for the incredible mime scenes by Louis de Funes at the gas station and in the Orly airport.
My grandfather, as well as my father were both of them fans of french cinema. I grew up watching this film in our Beta video (oh yes, way before VHS existed and DVD wasn't even thought of) and now, 20 years later I see it again in an anniversary edition. I can say I remember almost every gag from the film... every scene. I just watched it on DVD with my father again and was a blast from the past for both of us, he had seen it with my granddad 35 years ago in the cinema and with me and my brothers several times on video. I am saving this film to watch with my kids too in the future, they'll grow up with it too.
Such a great time...and so many memories

After seeing this movie, I wanted to write a review saying how funny this film was, so anyone checking IMDB would know. Luckily, all of the other reviews already capture the hilarious nature of this film. I can only add that my French teacher said most French people have seen the movie many times and practically know it by heart. Even though she has seen it many times, she wanted to see it yet again. Everybody will like this film, unless you really hate slapstick. If you are Jewish, it is especially funny, but if you aren't its still a complete riot.
Does anyone know where I can get a copy of this movie? I saw it in 1973 and can only remember that I was glad it was in subtitles because the laughter drowned out the dialogue. The juxtaposition of rabbis that weren't, with other Jews was hilarious. This movie was heavy with slapstick type humor as well. Loved it !

- QuizThe movie was released on October 18th 1973, during Yom Kippur War between Israel and Arab countries. That very day, Danielle Cravenne, wife of the film's publicist Georges Cravenne hijacked an Air France Boeing 727 to prevent the movie from being released, claiming that the movie was pro-Israeli. She boarded the plane at Orly airport in Paris and smuggled a 22 caliber carbine and a toy gun, and demanded that the plane (originally intended to land in Nice) be diverted to Cairo. The pilots convinced her to land in Marseille for refueling and upon landing she allowed the 110 passengers to leave the aircraft, keeping only the pilot and a crew member as hostages. After three hours of negotiations with the authorities, Cravenne asked for food to be delivered. Three members of the police's special forces team boarded the plane disguised as food servers and shot her in the head and chest. She died of her wounds on the way to the hospital.

- Versioni alternativeIn the english dubbed version, the last line is changed From, "That's alright sir, we'll take you anyway" to "That's alright sir, nobody's Perfect". Then in the ending credits, they thank Billy Wilder for the last line, which is a steal from the last line from "Some Like It Hot".
