Paul Prevert: Voyages Secretes
Part of a Jacques Prevert/Marcel Carne season, this farce was written by the
former and directed by his brother. A simple robbery is conflated with a
failing motor coach firm and an off screen revolution to provide a series of
delightful visual gags which keep the action moving admirably. No great
opus this but a pleasing diversion from the rather odd motor coach that takes
its clients on the mystery tour to an early appearance of Martine Carol in the
lead female role.
