Louis de Funès in *The Gendarme and the Aliens* – The scene at the Saint-Tropez police station
This iconic image captures Louis de Funès in his legendary role as Ludovic Cruchot during the filming of *The Gendarme and the Aliens* in 1979. Directed by Jean Girault, this sixth and final installment of the series was shot primarily at the Boulogne Studios, featuring futuristic sets specially designed for this science-fiction comedy. The actor, then at the height of his art, delivers one of his most memorable performances here as he faces off against the aliens in The Gendarme, perfectly embodying the character of Louis de Funès who has left an indelible mark on generations.
With over 6 million admissions at the French box office, this film brings a brilliant conclusion to a series that has drawn more than 50 million viewers. Jean Girault, the actor’s brilliant collaborator since *Le Gendarme de Saint-Tropez* (1964), directs their final collaboration here, marking the end of a golden age of popular French cinema.
Relive the magic of this intergalactic comedy that had all of France in stitches.
