Jambon d’Ardenne 1977
1h 26min | Comedy | 20 July 1977 (France)
Storyline
World Wars can break out for futile causes. But, in the holiday town of Durbuy (the smallest one in Belgium), there IS a good reason for civil war, namely the business rivalry between Simone, the energetic and successful owner of the Esplanade Hotel and Germaine Radoux, the envious tenant of the French fries stand across the square. Such an unbearable situation naturally pits half of the population against the other. Things do not improve when Simone’s son and Germaine’s daughter take it into their head to fall in love!
User review:
Annie Girardot gives a brilliant performance in this hearty comedy about two competing hotels that want to spoil each other in the high season and exceed all limits of fairness and good taste.
Dismissed from the criticism of the time as a high mediocrity, »Jambon d’Ardenne« has definitely gained in strength over the years and should urgently be released on DVD in Germany.
