Mr. Blake At Your Service! (French title: Complètement cramé!), also titled Well Done!, is a 2023 French-Luxembourgish comedy film directed by Gilles Legardinier (in his film debut) and co-written by Legardinier and Christel Henon. It is based on Legardinier's own 2012 novel Complètement cramé!Andrew Blake (John Malkovich) is a widowed British businessman. He takes a butler job in a manor house in France simply because he wants to stay there as it used to belong to his late French wife Diane (their romance started there many years ago). He then navigates the eccentric behavior of the lady who now owns the manor, a widow named Nathalie Beauvillier (Fanny Ardant), and the household staff, including majordomo Odile (Émilie Dequenne).

Title Drop: Odile tells Blake he's "Complètement cramé!" ("completely burnt", which in that case means "completely crazy") when he lets a hot iron on a newspaper, which burns the newspaper.

Malaproper: Philippe keeps calling Blake other names that (almost) sound like "Blake". He admits he's not good with names, so Blake instead proposes that they call each other by their first names.

Funny Foreigner: Blake having to adjust to French expressions and the butler job is source of comedy, but so are the quirks of his French employers.

Mistaken for Thief: When seeking his cellphone he lost on a forest ground full of autumn leaves, Blake finds himself suddenly at gunpoint by Philippe, the neighbor of Nathalie, who thinks he's part of the thieves who stole him tools. Blake almost gets killed when he runs away as Philippe fires a shot, but the two have a cordial drink next when Philippe comes to understand who Blake really is.

Eating Pet Food: One day, for lunch, Blake eats something he thinks Odile prepared for him. Turns out she prepared it for the cat, but it was apparently good and tasty enough for a human as well.

Impoverished Patrician: Nathalie owns the manor, but she isn't rich, especially since the death of her husband. She even intends to turn some of the manor's rooms into a bed and breakfast, something Odile did in her back (the advert Blake answered to).

Nice Guy: Blake is always well-meaning, even if not quite suited for the butler job and voicing his opinions out a bit too much.

Domestic Appliance Disaster: On his first day as a butler, Blake goofs up right away as he lets an iron burn a newspaper he was supposed to slightly iron in order to make the letters' ink dry so Nathalie won't have ink on her fingers.
