The Charlots - The idiot of the Legion (videotape)

Customer Review

I do not quite know where to start in this tangled story, not even if now the acting is the worst part of the movie, or the technical quality of the video cassette, or the cruel dubbed version?

The great Charlots be fewer and fewer. At first they were five, then had Luis Rego other goats to milk and they spent their most successful period four. Ua arisen because the films "Where the Green noodles fly" (1973), "We are the Musketeers Viere 1 + 2" (1974) and two army comedies from the "Les Bidasses" series.

1976 separated the Charlots of her producer, Christian Fechner. It can hardly be decreased by anything other than to make more money ... Jean-Guy Fechner (the big black-haired with the artistic balcony climbing insert from the "green pasta"), the brother of Christian, remained out of loyalty for his brother's production company and separated from the Charlots. So war'n se only three. In the same measure their films were getting worse, especially since they never found a really good producer or director at least.

I'll try to give the content of the video as concise again, how is it possible me:
A camp of the Foreign Legion in Algeria. Uprisings against the French occupation threaten. One seeks three volunteers to explore the insurgents. From the regular army is not answering.

But there are three hoodlums in jail, the ausbüxen repeatedly to enjoy the vibrant nightlife in Algeria desert! They are sent in selbige desert and promptly captured by insurgents. In the enemy's camp (rarely done poorly) they meet a comrade who has been detained for two months. You ask him to, at the lax safety conditions just come along when they run away, but he's too scared.

That same night, they manage to escape, disguised as Charley's Aunt. Medals and badges of honor there are plenty in every army, and they will be deported to the well-deserved civilian life. With little success. Gerard loses his job as a chauffeur, Phil will be sacked as metro train driver, and Jeannot has messed up his last hair style.

In this situation, you receive an offer for a job as a landowner / landscapers / gamekeepers / what-do-I-than-what. Your new customer is none other than the former fearful prisoners of war which it has now taken to the mayor of a small town in the Auvergne!

What they do not know: your old troupe, the Foreign Legion, is very unpopular with the people in the military sites and will rausgeekelt everywhere. So their new siting met precisely on those small town in the Auvergne. There does not want you, they also have, but who they should sell because again? The Mayor recalled his three fearless comrades and bring them to help, but he does not tell them anything ... Meanwhile, the Foreign Legion is nervous at the end and wants to create a fait accompli by unilaterally occupying the place and the garrison expanding it (of course, exactly the same Actors from the desert).

--- (We spread the cloak of silence over the rest of the plot) ---

Technically, the video is mushy, heavily distorted (by a misaligned picture tube removed, with a strong distortion in the left half) and the sound has metal dustbin quality. The film's content is not much better and does not yet exist as a digital image source. It need hardly be mentioned that the remaining Charlots again have other dubbing voices.
