Due fuggitivi e mezzo

"The Fugitives" (1986) is the third collaboration of the famous trio composed by Francis Veber, Gérard Depardieu and Pierre Richard, after "Knock on Wood" (1981) and "The ComDads" (1983).

It benefits from all the know-how of this blessed era. Starting with the talent of Francis Veber who, as a complete author, wrote and directed the film, then with the masterful acting performances of Gérard Depardieu, Pierre Richard, the adorable and phenomenal little Anaïs Bret, then 6 years old, as well as Jean Carmet. So many elements that perpetuate all the magic of the French comedy of the 1980s. All set to music with a new sublime soundtrack by Vladimir Cosma.

This film is carried by a tenderness and a humanity that no longer exist today, and only reinforces our nostalgia for a bygone century, where even some convicts could have a big heart.
