About

20th-century French phenomenon Fernandel stars in FRIC-FRAC as a naive jeweler's assistant who unknowingly gets mixed up with the Parisian demimonde, namely, Michel Simon's petty crook and Arletty's convicted-gangster's moll. Under extreme pressure from his boss' dicatorial daughter (Helene Robert) to become a couple, Fernandel's blithe Everyman falls for Arletty's worldly vixen, and the four of them work at all kinds of cross-purposes until, inevitably, the underworlders decide they have to break into ("fric-frac") the jeweler's safe.
