October 2.I love these silly French comedies. The funny farces seem like a throwback to 1960s romantic comedies. Nothing too serious, just good characters playing out romantic scenes in beautiful locations.
"La Doublure" or "The Valet" is the story of a wealthy married man, his supermodel girlfriend and the unlucky-in-love valet driver, Francois Pignon, who was at the wrong (or right) place at the wrong (or right) time.
A paparazzo snaps a picture of Elena (who looks so much like Heidi Klum I keep thinking it's her) standing next to her boyfriend, Levasseur and it gets printed in a newspaper. When Levasseur's wife sees it he tells her he was just passing by and sets out to find Francois who really was just passing by but is in the picture as well. Elena and Francois live together to make people think they are really dating and they even start to fool Levasseur, who set the whole thing up.
I have to find more movies like this!
