English title: Delusions of Grandeur.
Synopsis: In Spain of some centuries ago (I don't know exactly which century this is set in, probably the 16th), the Minister of Finance and Taxes is exonerated over a small incident; he then plots a scheme to have his job back while at the same time avenging himself at the Queen, who was responsible for his disgrace. The man who replaces him in his former job is his former valet, whom he plans to use in his evil schemes.
Appraisal: Predictably, this is another unattractive comedy by the same guy(s) who made Le Corniaud and La Grande Vadrouille. This one is even less attractive because it does not have Bourvil, who was probably the only interesting thing about the other two films.
