Ernest the Rebel

1938 · 92 min

A breezy, farcical romp through mishaps and narrow escapes, carried by comic energy rather than any real danger.

Directed by
Christian-Jaque
Genres
Comedy, Western
Overview
In South America anything can happen: the consul might give you as a snack to the sharks, you can wind up as a working man (slave) in a banana plantation or as a recruit in the governor's navy. And there's always a fire squad waiting for you so you 'd better start a revolution! It takes all Fernandel's talent to go through this eventful journey.
How it feels
Brisk and easy to follow.
