Once again, Michel Serrault as Albin, epitomizes all those ancient stereotypes about feminine flightiness and vanity--and once again, he walks the slender line between racy humor and misogyny.

The two are involved in a rather strained spy plot after Albin comes into possession of a microfilm wanted by both the Súreté and what one must assume are Communist spies. It is only when Albin and Renato are forced to flee France and take refuge in Italy, at the home of the latter's mother, that the picture comes alive.
