Not to Me, Madam!

About This Movie

So, 'Not to Me, Madam!' is this curious little comedy from '69 that really leans into its absurdist charm. It’s set against the backdrop of haute couture, with our main guy, Thomas, getting caught up in a series of mishaps thanks to a doppelgänger situation with a French Padre. The pacing has that classic European whimsy to it—just eccentric enough to keep you chuckling while never feeling rushed. The performances are delightfully quirky, and the practical effects in certain scenes add a layer of charm that’s hard to find these days. It's just one of those films where the atmosphere takes you on a nostalgic ride, even if the director's name is lost to time.

Finding a good copy of 'Not to Me, Madam!' can be a bit of a treasure hunt. It was released in a few formats, but many collectors seem to gravitate towards the VHS editions due to their nostalgic value. The scarcity of this title adds a layer of intrigue, especially since it’s often overlooked in discussions about comedies from that era. People who appreciate offbeat humor and the style of late 60s cinema tend to seek it out, making it a fascinating piece for any collection.
