Product Description:
After his wife leaves him, Fred goes on a cross-country crime spree in this dark but dreamy French comedy.
Product Description:
An unsettling blend of black comedy and melodrama, WORKERS FOR THE GOOD LORD, directed by French maverick Jean-Claude Brisseau, was chosen as one of the top ten films of 2000 by Cahiers du Cinema. The story follows the misadventures of Fred, whose wife leaves him because he cannot support her and his children. Emotionally devastated, he takes to the road with postal clerk Sandrine and a mysterious African named Maguette. The trio rob banks across the South of France until they amass a small fortune, but Fred can only think of winning back the affections of his wife. Brisseau’s outrageous combination of tones and film genres is a throwback to the French New Wave as are his hommages to the great French filmmakers. A cinephile’s dream, the film excited critics and riled audiences across Europe.
