Feet in the Mayonnaise: The Irreverent Ones of the 70s (2022)
In the early 1970s, Pompidou-era France, and soon Giscard d'Estaing's France, began to break free thanks to a few irreverent figures. Daniel Prévost, Pierre Desproges, Jean Yanne, Bertrand Blier, Patrick Dewaere, Gérard Depardieu, Miou-Miou, Coluche, Michel Polac, Professor Choron, and many others: all contributed to a culture whose influence still resonates with today's comedians. This documentary delves into this bygone era that gave birth to the new French irreverence.
