Produced by Sacha Distel's uncle ,Ray Ventura ,it is the third installment in the "Nous irons." (= we will go....)series ; for the record there's also "Nous irons à Paris "(1949) ,"Nous irons à Monte -Carlo"(1951),both directed by Jean Boyer, with music by Paul Misraki and Ventura himself .
Ray Ventura and his orchestra do not appear here ,but there are two or three songs , with a special guest appearance by his nephew . Only black singer Tony Milton's rocking tune is really exciting , the other songs ,if you can't say something nice......
Now for the film :Deauville was The Chic seaside resort on Normandy coast and to go there was the middle class' s dream :even though it meant renting a seedy house falling apart at every nail ; if you spent your vacation in this posh place ,you would impress your friends and neighbors .
There's a good cast , including Michel Serrault,Claude Brasseur ,Michel Galabru ,and Louis De Funès in a supporting part ; Roger Pierre and Jean-Marc Thibault appear in only one scene,but their gift of the gab is irresistible .Mary Marquet as the owner of the house near decay has a tendency to overplay though.
The thin thread is a trunk which never arrives ,in spite of the delivery man's so called efforts.(Jean Carmet);the film is deliciously dated with its "nouveaux francs " (=new francs ) and its surprise-partie (=party); Serrault licking his boss' boots is also good fun.
