Réveillon chez Bob
1984 Comedy / Drama
Review
This fairly run-of-the-mill comedy-drama would make rather tedious viewing if it were
not for the fine comic performances from Jean Rochefort and Michel Galabru. The
rambling, overly contrived plot is at times difficult to keep up with, but constant stream
of comic situations – however ludicrous – prevents the film from losing the audience’s
interest.
