About this photo
The Big Escape (1966) - Louis de Funès & Bourvil at the Château de Meung-sur-Loire
Filmed in the gardens of the Château de Meung-sur-Loire, this iconic scene brings together Louis de Funès and Bourvil under the direction of Gérard Oury. The director chose this location for its authentic 18th-century architecture, which perfectly embodied French elegance in contrast to the German uniforms. La Grande Vadrouille remains the most photographed comedy duo in French cinema, immortalized in this Gaumont production.
With 17.2 million admissions, *La Grande Vadrouille* held the all-time French box office record until 1997. This unique collaboration between de Funès and Bourvil marked the heyday of French comedy in the 1960s, even outselling American Westerns in French theaters. The film cemented the duo’s status as a staple of French popular entertainment.
Capture the moment when two giants of French comedy made cinema history.
