Made for French TV as part of a collective piece on how the French are thought of around the world. It's Lynch having fun but it's his uncertain integrity that puts me off, and indeed, puts a lot of people of his film full stop. I love them but sometimes I wonder..

He has made so much better shortfilms. I wasn't that into this one unfortunately. Dean Stanton and Jack Nance are perfect by the way.

This is a very funny short movie, only 26 minutes long, by David Lynch. Unlike most of the other movies he's made over the years, this is plain comedy.
