Dinner Games

A group of arrogant and superior friends meet to hold an "Idiot Dinner" on Wednesday night. The rules are very simple, that is, everyone only needs to bring one of the "most idiots" to dinner, and they will win rich prizes. One of the participants, Pierre (Thierry Lhermitte), plans to take his new acquaintance Pinon (Jacques Villeret) to the dinner. Pierre thought that this seemingly silly Pinon must be the best candidate. However, his wishful thinking completely failed. Pinon reversed the relationship and turned Pierre into the target of trouble. As a result, a ridiculous incident happened one after another. This comedy film "The Dinner Game" written and directed by Francis Weber is adapted from his 1993 stage play "The Fake Phoenix". The twists and turns of the comedy plot and the subversive crazy jokes made the film both a hit and a hit. In one fell swoop, he won the 24th Cesar Awards in 1999 for Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor and Best Screenplay (Original or Adapted).
