In Pierre Salvadori's film 'Aprez Vouz', Daniel Autiel's character plays a man whose life is ruined after a would-be suicide, whose life he saves, subsequently becomes dependent on him. Some of the comedy is painful, and most of it is stupid, but it's done with a certain underhand style, and the development of the plot, while not exactly plausible, moves the story onwards in unexpected directions. It drags in places, but it's hard to avoid smiling in others - overall, it's hardly a masterpiece of French cinema, but it is a gentle, quirky piece, endowed with a refreshing air of innocence (such as rarely circulates in Hollywood comedy).
