  • Dead Tired (Grosse Fatigue)
  • This uproariously upbeat comedy stars actor/writer/director/Michel Blanc (MONSIEUR HIRE) as both a mischievous celebrity impersonator ... and a French movie star who's being impersonated! Blanc's the star whose life takes a hilarious turn when he's hauled in by the police for a series of crazy incidents he can't seem to recall. But when he learns that an impostor is out to ruin him, he enlists a sexy starlet friend (Carole Bouquet -- FOR YOUR EYES ONLY) to help him find his double and save his reputation! Also featuring Philippe Noiret (IL POSTINO -- THE POSTMAN) and Roman Polanski (Academy Award(R)-winning director of THE PIANIST, 2002), this brilliantly original comic delight received Best Screenplay at the prestigious Cannes Film Festival.
