Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Michel Galabru was 76 during filming and reportedly did his own stunts, including a memorable scene where Marcel chases the cat through a market.
The film flopped in France but became a minor cult hit in Quebec, where Darry Cowl's absurdism resonated differently. It has never received an official English release.
