My comment

I was completely captivated by the story and the characters. It’s a classic cowboy movie with an authentic Wild West vibe, awesome cast, and a plot full of twists and turns. I loved following the adventures of Johnny Guitar and Vienna, who fight against outlaws to prove their innocence. The film is filled with action, suspense and a complex love story, which kept me hooked from start to finish. I highly recommend this movie to anyone who loves classic westerns or action movies in general. It is a true masterpiece of cinema and a classic of the genre that is worth watching.

My sum up

“La Puce à l’oreille” it’s like a big comedy of errors. Raymonde suspects that her husband is cheating on her, so she decides to trap him by arranging a secret meeting at a hotel. However, there’s a hilarious mix-up because there’s a guy at the hotel who looks a lot like her husband. This leads to a series of misunderstandings and confusions.

As the story unfolds, we realize that it’s not the husband who’s cheating, but in fact, it’s the maid and the valet who have a secret relationship. The play is full of funny situations and unexpected revelations that make the audience laugh.

Synopsis

Raymonde Chandebise suspects her husband of adultery. She sets a trap for him by anonymously arranging to meet him at the Minet-Galant Hotel. Mr. Chandebise responds to the call by sending his loyal friend Tournel, unaware that the bellboy, Poche, is his doppelgänger. The hotel then becomes the stage for a gigantic farce where the mechanics of misunderstandings, lies, and deceptions spiral out of control with no one able to stop them.
