Pouic-Pouic is a 1963 French comedy film directed by Jean Girault, starring Louis de Funès and Mireille Darc.Patricia Monestier (Darc) is the daughter of Léonard Monestier (de Funès), a rich speculator. She is tired of Antoine's (Guy Tréjean) courtship, so she hires Simon Guilbaud (Philippe Nicaud) to pretend he is her husband. Her father comes back home and he is very angry to hear that her daughter has married someone without his permission. Meanwhile, Léonard's wife Cynthia (Jacqueline Maillan) has bought a concession in South America as a present for her husband's birthday. Léonard is convinced she was conned by the seller, so he wants to re-sell the same concession to Antoine. To this end, he asks Patricia to charm Antoine and he asks Simon to pretend he is his own son coming back from South America.

When Antoine asks him if he was informed about the concession by his son who travelled to South America, he answers yes and decides to ask Simon to pretend to be his son.

Disney Death: When Léonard Monestier hears that finally Antoine bought the concession, he collapses. The next image is a close-up of flowers, with funeral music. Then, the camero zooms out and the music changes: it is actually Patricia and Simon's wedding and Léonard Monestier is still alive.

comment
Contrived Coincidence: The concession Cynthia bought is in South America. Her son Paul pretended to be in South America, which allows Léonard to pretend his son explored the place. Just as Léonard has convinced Antoine that Simon is his son coming back from South America, his real son Paul comes back home (with Palma Diamantino).

The Ditz: Cynthia. She is conned by Pedro Caselli and she buys the concession. Later, her husband has a hard time explaining his plan to her (in particular the fact that Simon will pretend to be their son). Her attachment to Pouic-Pouic, her pet rooster, makes her almost a Cloudcuckoolander.
