Comment:

In the comedies category, " Beautiful the américaine" is an authentic masterpiece of the French popular cinema. No idle period: it is impossible to count the gags which follow one another every five minutes! The compliment applies to the pleiad of actors in this film, whatever the duration of their roles: omnipresence of Lunar Pierrot of a marvellous Robert Dhéry with be delirious of Funès and Michel Serrault, it would be too long to describe the accuracy sympathetic nerve of their sets of actors.

A true family spectacle for the young people from 5 to 105 years!
