Review of Buffet Froid

What great talent wasted in this film! I saw this film only once because it brings together "monsters" of French cinema, but I hate the kind of films that Bertrand Blier (Bernard's son) makes.
I consider the cinema as an entertainment (divertissement) or even as a means of making known the History or the mores of the people; humor is my favorite cinema; on the other hand, I don't like "psychological" cinema at all, which has no meaning for me. (Idem for Goddart, Truffaut, etc.) Bernard Blier is employed here in a genre that absolutely does not suit him. Like Depardieu, he is a real actor, complete, as comfortable in comedy as in tragic roles ("Les tontons flingueurs", "Quai des Orfèvres", for example.
