The Sucker
“The funniest fraud a fall-guy ever fell for!”
In this Franco-Italian gangster parody, a shopkeeper on his way to an Italian holiday suffers a crash that totals his car. The culprit can only compensate his ruined trip by driving an American friend's car from Naples to Bordeaux, but as it happens to be filled with such contraband as stolen money, jewelry and drugs, the involuntary and unwitting companions in crime soon attract all but recreational attention from the "milieu".
This is a rollicking, lighthearted caper that throws an unsuspecting everyman into a whirlwind of comedic chaos. Expect a propulsive road trip filled with mistaken identities and escalating, farcical crime, all wrapped in a charmingly retro European style. It's a delightful, breezy ride.
