I guess the French liked him. I thought he was funny when I was a kid in the 50s. Later, not so much.

Some French “comedies” like Mr Hulots Holiday are completely laughless to me. Other’s like The Dinner Game or Amelie are top notch. To me Lewis’ later stuff fits in the laughless Hulot category. It’s the sort of thing where people are laughing their heads off around you while you sit and stare uncomfortably like you just got dropped into the middle of a nut ward.

I was surprised to see some film website had Barbarella categorized as a French comedy.

They more I think about it, though...
