The most successful French film of the 1970s, based on a long-running boulevard farce which went on to enjoy an '80s afterlife as a Broadway musical. Gay cabaret owners Renato and Albin are persuaded by Renato's son to act straight in an attempt to pull the wool over the eyes of his fiancée’s parents.
