Le Petit prof
1959 Comedy   

 

Review
Popular French comic performer Darry Cowl stars in this routine 1950s comedy, which is really just a series of uninspired sketches cobbled together into a full-length film.  It’s pretty anodyne stuff, but some of the visual gags work rather well and there’s a decent turn from the almost mythic comedian Francis Blanche.

Synopsis
