Le grand soir

Two brothers who are complete opposites: one is a salesman in a chain store, while the other fancies himself the oldest punk-with-a-dog in Europe...

But the twists of modern life will reunite them, putting them both on the street. Now confederates of the Punk Attitude, the two men put everything on the line to spark off a new revolution...

„With LE GRAND SOIR, Delépine and De Kervern have constructed an anarchic and often hilarious comedy. The humour is broad and clownish, with the two brothers ending the film resembling a double act from vaudeville. Particular highlights from the supporting cast include the men’s mother (Anne Fontaine), whose every gesture is accompanied by a flourish, and a cameo from Gérard Depardieu. Yet beneath the more straight-forward clownish elements runs a darker, absurdist humour.”
