He has neither Batman's flair nor James Bond's cool, though he can easily look squarer than Superman. Passionate self-parody is Marais's gimmick, and he earns a snicker whenever he detours into the arms of that demoiselle-in-distress, Mylène Demongeot, at one point with such fervency that he seems about to fling himself out of a rising helicopter...
