Synopsis
The Fool (Le Dindon, 2019) is a French farce you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Jalil Lespert. Pontagnac, a serial flirt, trails a beautiful stranger to her front door — and ends up shaking hands with her husband, an old friend of his.
From there the lies multiply. Victoire, the woman in question, has no real interest in an affair; she'd rather use the unfolding mess to catch and punish her own cheating spouse. Meetings get crossed, hotel rooms get swapped, and every character digs a deeper hole trying to cover the last one. Dany Boon, Alice Pol and Guillaume Gallienne keep the slamming-door rhythm running at full tilt.
It comes from Georges Feydeau's stage farce Le Dindon, moved to the present but built on the same clockwork of bad timing and worse alibis. Light, brisk and undemanding — comfort comedy for an easy night in. Stream The Fool (2019) online on iFILM.
