Le Beauf (1987)
Gilbert, assigned to incinerate old banknotes at the Bank of France, lives with his wife, Gisèle, and his young son, Thomas. A few years earlier, he had formed a rock band with Serge and Gisèle's brother, Marc. The latter, abusing his naivety, make him believe that he has been robbed of a briefcase containing a million dollars and that, because of his fault, Marc is in danger of dying. The objective is to force Gilbert to put his incinerator out of order to facilitate the bank robbery. Gilbert refuses at first, then gives in. But he discovers that he has been cheated. To get revenge, he tells the police the date and time of the robbery.

Surprisingly incoherent and boring
The first must-see film of the year.
It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.
Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
