Please, Please Me!

A slapstick French comedy from writer/director/actor Emmanuel Muoret (Shall We Kiss?, Change of Address, Venus and Fleur).

Jacques (Mouret) is a nitwit inventor whose sole obsession in life is chasing women. After his girlfriend Ariane (Frederique Bel) begins to reject his sexual advances, he is caught fantasising about a girl he met in a cafe, Elisabeth (Judith Godreche). While miffed, Ariane tries to free him of the obsession and encourages him to use all his wiles to try and seduce the girl. Jacques throws himself into the challenge, only to learn Elisabeth is in fact the daughter of the French President. He attempts to be suave in his seduction of the first daughter, but only succeeds in triggering one outrageous catastrophe after another.
