Les Fugitifs | comment |
Les Fugitifs ("The Fugitives") is a 1986 French comedy film written and directed by Francis Veber, starring Gérard Depardieu and Pierre Richard. Vladimir Cosma composed the soundtrack.Jean Lucas, a bank robber, gets out of jail. He has decided to settle down, but the policeman who arrested him is sceptical about it. Lucas goes to a bank to deposit money, when someone enters, intimidates the customers with a gun and demands money. Then, he takes Lucas hostage to escape safely. The hostage taker is François Pignon, a jobless widower who brings up his daughter alone. He committed a heist because he is at loose ends. The problem for Lucas is that the police believe that he is responsible for the heist.An American remake(also written and directed by Francis Veber) Three Fugitives, was released in 1989. | |

Les Fugitifs / int_15b2cab3 | comment |
Tempting Fate: The owner of the bar says that Lucas is not dangerous for him because he must keep a low profile while on the run. Immediately, a van enters his bar through the front window. This is Lucas who wants to free Pignon. | |

Les Fugitifs / int_3dcc914f | comment |
Took a Level in Kindness: Lucas is a badass mobster. He constantly insults Pignon. When he is wounded, he claims that he does not need his help or the help of his daughter. Progressively, his relationship with Jeanne will show that he has a soft core and that he really cares for her and her father. | |

Les Fugitifs / int_6056f853 | comment |
Homoerotic Subtext: Pignon and Lucas get very close to each other. Jeanne, Pignon's daughter, seems to need both of them. In the end, Pignon dresses as a woman and he pretends to be Lucas's wife. He sticks with the woman's clothes until the end of the film (even if it is not necessary any more). In the end, Lucas, Pignon and Jeanne seem to be a family. | |
