Et avec les oreilles qu'est-ce que vous faites?

About This Movie

So, 'Et avec les oreilles qu'est-ce que vous faites?' is this quirky 1974 French comedy that delves into the absurdity of filmmaking itself. You’ve got these two buddies, Arthur and Jérôme, who decide to ditch their high-minded ideas in favor of something more... erotic. It's all a bit tongue-in-cheek, with a pace that feels both leisurely and frantic as they search for their cast. The humor often dances around the ridiculousness of the industry, and there's this charm in how they navigate the chaos of their project. The performances are a mixed bag, but they add to the film's unique vibe. It’s distinct for its playful take on eroticism, wrapped in a light-hearted, rather self-aware package.

This film has seen limited availability over the years, with various formats popping up, but the original prints are increasingly hard to find. Collector interest is modest yet growing, as enthusiasts appreciate its oddball charm and the exploration of 70s French cinema's more eccentric side. It’s not the most mainstream title, but that’s part of its appeal for those who enjoy the under-the-radar gems of the era.
