About this photo
Louis de Funès in *Le Grand Restaurant* - Monsieur Septime's iconic performance
Filmed at the Boulogne Studios in 1966, *Le Grand Restaurant* features Louis de Funès as Monsieur Septime, the owner of a prestigious restaurant who finds himself caught up in a wild kidnapping. Jacques Besnard directs this comedy, in which de Funès showcases his legendary physical comedy, particularly in the dining room scene, where every facial expression becomes a masterclass in comedic precision.
With 4.8 million admissions at the French box office, the film cemented Louis de Funès’ rise to the status of king of French comedy. This achievement came during his golden age, between *Le Corniaud* and *La Grande Vadrouille*, when he perfected his unique style, blending controlled nervous energy with bourgeois elegance. Bernard Blier and Venantino Venantini brilliantly round out the cast.
A truly exceptional film that captures the essence of Louis de Funès’s comedic genius in one of his most delightful roles.
