OSS 117: Cairo, Nest of Spies (2006)

OSS 117: Cairo, Nest of Spies (OSS 117: Le Caire, nid d'espions)

Watched this 2006 French spoof/parody of the "spy in a tuxedo" genre last night.  I was howling with laughter.  The next day I'm still laughing lol

Got to imagine there's a pulp spy game in there.  It's a parody of the mid-century French films and books re OSS 117, and to some extent of the early James Bond as well.  Highly recommended!

Agreed.  I saw it at a theater in Berkeley and loved it so much I had to buy it when it came out on DVD.  I'm still looking for a mini that could represent monsieur Hubert Bonisseur de La Bath correctly.

There's supposedly a sequel en route. Yay!
