I read an article where someone described this as the funniest film ever made. I won't go that far, but the idea is brilliant. An arrogant publisher is part of a group that regularly meets for dinner, and each person brings an idiot, such as a boomerang enthusiast or in the publisher's case, a man who builds matchstick models of the Eiffel Tower, the Concorde, and so on. The acting is superb as the publisher finds that there are different kinds of idiocy. There are lots of laugh out loud show more moments, even when reading subtitles. Don't miss it. show less
