Résumés(1)
Félicien Mezeray, brocanteur d'art, découvre un jour un authentique Modigliani. Autant dire que la fortune est à lui. Enfin presque. Car l'oeuvre a été tatouée sur le dos d'un ex-légionnaire bougon et colérique, qui n'a cure des manigances de Mezeray. Ce dernier est prêt à tout pour arriver à ses fins, même à retaper la maison de campagne du légionnaire, qui s'avère être un château du 16ème siècle en ruines. (Orange)

This time, my two stars are not only for a specific film but for a whole era and type of popular comedies from the 50s and 60s. Simply put, older French and Italian comedies with a leading pair, a few functional gags, and a lot of wordy filler just feel exhausted to me, sometimes desperately so. This type of film doesn't offend in any way, but I don't have much fun with them anymore. For early films with Louis de Funès, this feeling is more of a rule than an exception. Overall impression: 40%, one of the two stars is for the presence of two famous names in French cinema. ()
The Tattooed One is not a typical comedy that would make you laugh uncontrollably, but rather a humorous story about a seemingly unlikely friendship between two men brought together by a tattoo. Both Louis De Funès and Jean Gabin played their parts in an amusing way and together they served up many a hilarious scene. The most charming part of the film was the tour of the Romanesque foundations, which was funny even on a return visit. ()
