Synopsis
A Monkey in Winter (Un singe en hiver, 1962) is a French comedy-drama you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Henri Verneuil and starring Jean Gabin alongside a young Jean-Paul Belmondo. Two men, two generations, one night of shared escapism in a quiet Normandy village.
Albert Quentin has kept a wartime vow for fifteen years: on the day the Allies landed, he swore off drink to save his marriage. He kept the promise. Then Gabriel Fouquet checks into his small hotel — a slick, hard-drinking advertising man who carries the reckless energy Albert buried long ago. By midnight, the two are deep in Calvados and wild fantasies of the lives they'll never actually live.
Adapted from Antoine Blondin's novel, the film rests entirely on the chemistry between Gabin's world-weary restraint and Belmondo's barely-contained chaos — and it earns every quiet laugh. It is the kind of picture that asks nothing of you and gives back more than expected. Stream A Monkey in Winter (1962) online on iFILM.
