Les Visiteurs	comment	Les Visiteurs (meaning "The Visitors" in French) is a classic French Time Travel comedy film directed by Jean-Marie PoirÃ© and released in January 1993, starring Jean Reno, Christian Clavier, and ValÃ©rie Lemercier. It was also written by Clavier, and spawned two sequels and a remake. Era provided the soundtrack.In the year 1123, Godefroy le Hardi ("the Bold"), a brave and proud French knight, saves the life of his king, Louis VI the Fat. He is rewarded with the title of Count of Montmirail and is given leave to marry Dame FrÃ©nÃ©gonde, his betrothed. On his way home, he finds and captures a witch to burn her alive. She slips a poison into his drink in retaliation, causing him to hallucinate, and when he sees his betrothed running towards him pursued by her father the Duke of Pouille, he thinks she's being chased by a bear, shooting the Duke dead with his crossbow. The wedding obviously called off, Godefroy consults a wizard to travel back in time a few days ago to prevent the accidental killing. Unfortunately, the wizard struggles with dementia and screws up with the formula, sending Godefroy and his squire Jacquouille several hundred years into the future instead. The two men wake up in 1992, and their medieval outlook on life quickly gets them into trouble...In the 1998 sequel titled Les Visiteurs II: Les Couloirs du Temps (The Visitors II: The Corridors of Time), Godefroy and Jacquouille are returned to their rightful times just to find out that Jacquouille created a Temporal Paradox by stealing the Duke's jewels and retrieving them in the 20th century, including an important relic. Once again, Godefroy's marriage is at stake because of said relic, and they have to go "forward" to the 20th century again to fix the paradox.A second sequel came out in 2016, Les Visiteurs: La RÃ©volution (The Visitors: Bastille Day). It focuses on Godefroy's and Jacquouille's fate in 1793, during the Reign of Terror phase of The French Revolution, the era they have been sent to by mistake at the end of The Corridors of Time.An American-French co-production remake with no ties to the other films came out in 2001, Just Visiting (Les Visiteurs en AmÃ©rique), with the same main actors and director. Bastille Day ignores it.

Les Visiteurs / int_1078bba8	comment	"Mister Sandman" Sequence: When Godefroy and Jacquouille flee in separate directions after the restaurant incident, Godefroy rides on horseback on a road and a truck almost runs over him. He then passes by a train and a jet airliner flies over him. He then shouts "MONTJOIE!" in confusion, before entering a church to Seeking Sanctuary. The sequence starts with a guitar riff before switching to "Enae Volare".

And there's the slow Body Horror afflicting Godefroy and Jacquouille due to too much travels in time.

Les Visiteurs / int_1592e954	comment	Jean-Pierre Goulard (BÃ©atrice's stomatologist husband) doesn't fare much better. First, he's forced to house the aforementioned smelly Medieval Morons into his home (and one of them bites his hand, for starters). Since the two medieval men are out of touch with the 20th century, they end up wasting his luxury products in one single bath, breaking dishes, scaring the shit out of his kids, causing a water flooding in his house, ruining his car's interior (and shoes) with vomit and overall annoy the shit out of him with their medieval manners (especially when Godefroy gets flirtatious with BÃ©atrice). Once they get to Jacquart's chÃ¢teau, he is bitten in the butt by an Angry Guard Dog, and ends up lying on a sofa with a woman jabbing his butt with syringes while everyone passes by. Comes the sequel, he's forced to house Jacquouille again, and things only get worse from there. Jacquouille gets scared by his TV and throws an object into it, which makes it implode and causes a house fire. Then, in his full moron mode, Jacquouille ruins the firemen's efforts and equipment by throwing alcohol at the fire and messing around with the firetruck's siren and, worst of all, the fire hose... If a water flooding in his house, his dentist office, and his car wasn't enough for poor Jean-Pierre, the woman whose teeth he was treating got caught in Jacquouille's Disaster Dominoes and vows to ruin his reputation. Then he gets sent to Middle Ages by mistake, in a sweatsuit and slippers... The man just never gets a break.

In the film he's just fine after his ordeal stops, he only gets a Balloon Belly and a constant urge to urinate until his body returns to normal. In Real Life, he'd be at high risk of hyponatraemia (low sodium in the blood) and cerebral edema, with much convulsions and deliriums and eventually death. That's not even mentioning that the water was "stagnant" (i.e. full of dirty stuff) according to him, which would mean plenty of nasty bacteria (which wouldn't be surprising by medieval standards) and yet with all that he's just fine.

Which is Anachronism Stew, since both protagonists departed in time in 1993, while the Franck Provost brand didn't exist until the 2000s.

Jacquart doesn't believe it, goes under the chimney and pretends there's nothing... then another mass of soot falls on his face.

In Bastille Day, at one point in 1793, Jacquouillet wants to change his name because it would sound too ridiculous at the Convention. Godefroy is present when this happens, and suggests the name "Jacquart", which is adopted, thus causing himself the change he was puzzled at in the first film.

His prestige hotel is invaded by two smelly Medieval Morons while he's trying to impress important guests, his new Range Rover gets incinerated, several of his business suits are ruined, people keep thinking the moronic and smelly Jacquouille is his brother, and he eventually gets sent to a time period full of said smelly medieval people... Things go From Bad to Worse in the sequel, as he is chased by wolves and a bear, gets almost lynched and burnt alive, gets locked in a dark dungeon infested with rats, and gets tortured by an inquisitor who forces him to drink huge quantities of water, which makes him piss endlessly afterwards. And he caught scabies. Jean-Pierre Goulard (BÃ©atrice's stomatologist husband) doesn't fare much better. First, he's forced to house the aforementioned smelly Medieval Morons into his home (and one of them bites his hand, for starters).

Then he gets sent to Middle Ages by mistake, in a sweatsuit and slippers... The man just never gets a break. The Bernay brothers fare a little better than Jacquart and Jean-Pierre. First, Edgar is not well due to having to shower with cold water due to a heating breakdown at Jacquart's chÃ¢teau and gets a very nasty dental abscess (unrelated to either Godefroy or Jacquouille). Then Jacquouille blasts his inner ear with his horn on the phone, which makes the abscess worse, then Jacquart sprays him with a fire extinguisher by mistake, then he fears for his car (which is only covered in ashes, compared to Jacquart's charred new Range Rover). Edouard gets the least amount of shit, merely being on the receiving end of an insult for thinking that Jacquart has a gay brother and a drunk father, and having a soup tureen thrown on his face by accident. Jacqueline, Jacquart's hotel receptionist. Her boss can be quite verbally mean to her, which causes her to cry, and Godefroy and Jacquouille often rudely toss her out of their way.

Les Visiteurs / int_4acee1ed	comment	Fish out of Temporal Water: The two main characters are scared and confused by modern concepts, such as cars, telephone, radio, planes, television (which Jacquouille calls "the troubadours box"), charging into churches bellowing "ASILE!" no longer being an appropriate response to the law... And reversed when two of the modern characters (Jacquart and Jean-Pierre) are sent back in time (and have a harder time there, since medieval times are way more hostile to them than The '90s are to medieval people). They associate medieval concepts with modern things they encounter, such as black men being called "Saracens", cars being called "devil-carriages", television being called the "troubadours box", or German soldiers "hailing from Germania". The trope is played with a bit of irony in Bastille Day. The medieval man Jacquouille was so accustomed to having cars, electrical light, and running water in The '90s that he's frustrated about their non-existence in 1793.

Les Visiteurs / int_4d657001	comment	The Bernay brothers fare a little better than Jacquart and Jean-Pierre. First, Edgar is not well due to having to shower with cold water due to a heating breakdown at Jacquart's chÃ¢teau and gets a very nasty dental abscess (unrelated to either Godefroy or Jacquouille). Then Jacquouille blasts his inner ear with his horn on the phone, which makes the abscess worse, then Jacquart sprays him with a fire extinguisher by mistake, then he fears for his car (which is only covered in ashes, compared to Jacquart's charred new Range Rover). Edouard gets the least amount of shit, merely being on the receiving end of an insult for thinking that Jacquart has a gay brother and a drunk father, and having a soup tureen thrown on his face by accident.

Ganelon and Enguerrand le BalafrÃ© are not seen in the 1124 segment, while they were introduced in Les Visiteurs as Godefroy's most trusted men of arms, and thus would have been the most likely to dream the film's opening sequence and seek for Godefroy. Felix Mendelssohn's Violin Concerto is not heard at the end unlike the previous two films. Giuseppe Verdi's "Die Irae" is used instead for the last time we see Godefroy and Jacquouille, and the final scene with the 18th century Montmirails fleeing directly cuts on the remix of Era's "Enae Volare".

The infamous guillotine naturally shows up and separates plenty of heads from their bodies of aristocrats and suspects. Godefroy highlights how the victims don't suffer (the Real Life intent behind the invention of the device), whereas beheading people with an axe in his time (the 12th century) could definitely make them suffer.

Except there's the whole infamous ring scene, where the two "Bague du Hardi" from the past and the present fuse together. It makes no logical sense and, even granted "A Wizard Did It", Makes Just as Much Sense in Context. Apparently, that only ring could be present in two samples at a time because of Time Travel was found a logical paradox by the writers, never mind that it only applies to the ring and to nothing else in the film.

Godefroy is at first thought to be the family's long-lost cousin Hubert, a racing driver who presumably died in a race in Borneo. Eusaebius the wizard and his late 20th century descendant, Ferdinand Eusebe. The only difference is that Eusebe has no beard and is bedridden and requires an oxygen mask. The Duke of Luigny and Nora's second husband in The Corridors of Time.

Bilingual Bonus to the extent that the group Era who provided much of the soundtrack specialized in Ominous Latin Chanting... despite not actually singing in Latin but in Latinish-sounding gibberish: the lyrics were meant to have no definite meaning. In this sense, it's a bit of a subversion of the obligatory Ominous Latin Chanting in Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves.

Les Visiteurs / int_ca95473c	comment	Series Continuity Error: The Corridors of Time: BÃ©atrice thinking that Ginette also comes from the Middle Ages comes completely out of nowhere, nothing in the first film even suggested this. Besides the Present-Day Past cars mentioned above, the 1992 Renault Safrane from the original (the one with a hole in the roof from Godefroy's burning ring) inexplicably morphs into a 1997 Volkswagen Passat. Jacquart turning into a small pile of dung when travelling in time. In the first film, he simply disappeared without a trace doing so. Jacquouille still being clueless when having to use a phone. He perfectly knew its function and how to use one by the climax of the first film. Bastille Day: Godefroy has two trusted men-at-arms in his service in the first film, Ganelon and Enguerrand le BalafrÃ©. Somehow, in this film they're named Aymeric and Thibaut, and look different. Jacquouille says his mother's name was Gertrude the Fat-Bottomed. Her name was Gwendoline in the first film. The castle of Montmirail is still in a medieval state, fortified and all, when Godefroy and Jacquouille land in 1943. In 1992, it was filmed at the castle of Ermenonville, a Neo-Renaissance palace built in the 18th century, and it looked accordingly (in its backstory, the medieval fortress was demolished sometime before or during the 18th century). Even as it looked different in 1793 in the same film, it was still distinctly 18th century architecture. The castle somehow belongs to the Jacquart family since Jacquouillet confiscated it during the French Revolution. In the first film, in 1992, BÃ©atrice stated that Jacques-Henri Jacquart bought the castle (though he could have bought it from other people who might have acquired it after 1945, it's possible that it might have been confiscated by the state in 1945 or later since his father was a collaborationist). The Duke of Pouille's jewels that Godefroy and Jacquouille had to retrieve in the second film are not even mentioned, despite Godefroy having to bring them back to the year 1123 (their unfinished quest from the second film) to ensure himself a descendance.

Jacquouille embodies this to the highest degree, to the point of Flanderization in the sequels. The Burn the Witch! situation Jacquart goes through in the sequel. The inquisitor orders him to be burnt for carrying "sorcery" artifacts... because he's scared by a moo box. In 1793, both the bourgeois and nobles think our two protagonists are peasants from very remote rural areas since nobody in Paris speaks (and smells) like them 670 years after their era.

One gag stems from the double meaning of "maÃ®tresse", a transparent cognate of "mistress", both in its somewhat antiquated meaning of "female master" and that of "extra-marital lover". Jacquouille describes BÃ©atrice, who he mistakes for Dame FrÃ©nÃ©gonde, as his "mistress" to "Dame" Ginette. The latter reacts by calling her a stuck-up "poufiasse" (an insult vaguely similar in register to "bitch" or "slag"). Unaware of the word's meaning, Jacquouille takes it for an honorific and proceeds to actually call Godefroy's descendant, "Dame BÃ©atrice la Pouffiasse".

Les Visiteurs / int_fc225bec	comment	Artistic License â€“ Physics: It's as if FrÃ©nÃ©gonde can slow down her perception of time somehow when Godefroy shoots at her father. She has enough time to turn towards her father, scream and fall on her knees when the crossbow bolt is shot on her father, whereas in Real Life it would happen too fast for her to do so.

Les Visiteurs / int_fdb6b8ad	comment	The Magnificent: Godefroy's surname is "le Hardi" (the Daring/the Bold). Jacquouille's surname is "la Fripouille" (the Scoundrel). King Louis VI "le Gros" (the Fat). In the third film, Jacquouille says the name of his mother was Gertrude "la Fessue" (the Fat-Bottomed).

Les Visiteurs / int_fe0330fb	comment	Brick Joke: Jacquouille is never heard shouting his trademark "OKAY" until the end in 1943, when he hears a resistant pronouncing it inside the truck. In Les Visiteurs, in 1992, Godefroy asks Jacques-Henri Jacquart why he changed his family name from "Jacquouille" to "Jacquart", which is left unanswered (probably because it happened too long ago). In Bastille Day, at one point in 1793, Jacquouillet wants to change his name because it would sound too ridiculous at the Convention. Godefroy is present when this happens, and suggests the name "Jacquart", which is adopted, thus causing himself the change he was puzzled at in the first film. In Les Visiteurs, Godefroy commented how the lack of defenses on the castle (which has been demolished and rebuilt in the 18th century) will make it easy to invade for the Wisigoths. At the end of Bastille Day, the castle is occupied by Germans during World War II.

Les Visiteurs / int_fec2b522	comment	Happy Ending: Godefroy manages to return in 1123 and change his destiny, killing the witch instead of the Duke of Pouille and finally being able to marry FrÃ©nÃ©gonde. For a stranded-in-1123 Jacquart however...

Les Visiteurs / int_ff1a13ad	comment	Accidental Incantation: When BÃ©atrice tries everything to make Jacquouille and Ginette drink the Time Travel potion to send them to Middle Ages, she mixes it with hot chocolate to give it a better taste. Jacquouille drinks it... and so does BÃ©atrice's husband Jean-Pierre who just happened to find the pan with the potion in it thinking it's hot chocolate. When BÃ©atrice pronounces the incantation, she sends both Jacquouille and her husband to The Middle Ages.
