Irénée does not want to work in his uncle's grocery shop and spends his time dreaming of becoming an actor. Irénée's chance comes when a crew of movie makers came to his little village. Irénée begins to go overboard to get noticed, which earns him the traditional joke reserved to a "schpountz" : a phoney contract and a departure for Paris. ## Credits - **Director:** [Gérard Oury](https://cinepixo.com/people/gerard-oury) - **Screenplay:** [Gérard Oury](https://cinepixo.com/people/gerard-oury), [Albert Algoud](https://cinepixo.com/people/albert-algoud) - **Original Music Composer:** [Vladimir Cosma](https://cinepixo.com/people/vladimir-cosma) - **Producer:** [Alain Poiré](https://cinepixo.com/people/alain-poire) ## Cast - [Marcel Philippot](https://cinepixo.com/people/marcel-philippot) - [Patrice Abbou](https://cinepixo.com/people/patrice-abbou) - [Carole Franck](https://cinepixo.com/people/carole-franck) - [Jean-Marie Juan](https://cinepixo.com/people/jean-marie-juan) - [Christophe Guybet](https://cinepixo.com/people/christophe-guybet) - [Sabine Azéma](https://cinepixo.com/people/sabine-azema) - [Jean-Marie Winling](https://cinepixo.com/people/jean-marie-winling) - [Carol Brenner](https://cinepixo.com/people/carol-brenner) - [Jean Dell](https://cinepixo.com/people/jean-dell) - [Smaïn](https://cinepixo.com/people/smain) - [Martin Lamotte](https://cinepixo.com/people/martin-lamotte) - [Annie Grégorio](https://cinepixo.com/people/annie-gregorio) - [Ticky Holgado](https://cinepixo.com/people/ticky-holgado) - [Georges Neri](https://cinepixo.com/people/georges-neri) - [Rémy Roubakha](https://cinepixo.com/people/remy-roubakha) ## Criticism on CinePixo No reviews published yet.
