English title: French Fried Vacation.
Synopsis: A summer resort in France, its guests and the folks who work there. A couple which tolerate each other's infidelities but down deep is not too comfortable with that policy; a socially inept fellow who is ridiculed by everyone; and several other characters.
Appraisal: An obviously unpretentious film which has a certain amount of charm; its collective character is not exactly balanced, with the Bernard-Nathalie couple being a sort of dramatic axis, and Jean-Claude the goofy fellow the comical one. It's uneven, with its fair amount of unfunny bits; to be sure, there are funny ones too, and the general spontaneity of mise-en-scene is remarkable in its own right. I saw the shorter version, with approximately 90 minutes (the longer one has 105, according to IMDb).
