Les Aventures de Rabbi Jacob (The Mad Adventures of Rabbi Jacob), often shortened to Rabbi Jacob, is a 1973 French comedy directed by Gérard Oury. It stars Louis de Funès in one of his most famous roles. Vladimir Cosma composed the soundtrack.Jacob (Marcel Dalio) is a beloved rabbi from New York City who has lived there for 30 years. One day, the French side of his family, the Schmolls, invite him to preside over the Bar Mitzvah of his young nephew David. Jacob boards a plane to leave America for his birthland of France, and his young friend Rabbi Samuel comes with him.Meanwhile in France, Victor Pivert (De Funès), a chauvinistic, bad-tempered and slightly xenophobic businessman, is on the way to his daughter's wedding. He and his driver, Salomon (Henri Guybet), have a car accident in which Pivert's car (carrying a speed boat) flips upside-down into a lake. When Salomon, who is Jewish, refuses to help because Shabbat has just begun, Pivert fires him, much to Salomon's content. As Pivert goes to find assistance in an empty bubblegum factory, he involuntarily helps Mohammed Larbi Slimane (Claude Giraud), an Arab revolutionist leader, to escape a group of Secret Police agents from the regime he fights against, who are led by Farès (Renzo Montagnani).Now on the run from both Farès and the French police, Pivert and Slimane bound and gag two rabbis at the very airport Jacob is awaited to by the Schmoll family and take their clothes to disguise. Pivert is then mistaken for Jacob by the Schmolls, and brought into the Jewish community in Paris. Hilarity ensues, and Pivert will also learn to overcome his prejudices along the way.The film earned a nomination at the 1975 Golden Globe Award for Best Foreign Language Motion Picture. | |

Instant Expert: Pivert is dragged into a Hasidic dance and keeps up surprisingly well, despite being quite a clumsy individual and obviously never doing it before. It was "a miracle" according to him. In Real Life, De Funès trained for two months to perform it. | |

Pivert is flabbergasted at the sight of a marriage between a white man and a black woman when being stuck in the traffic jam the wedding causes in a village. He's the only person who's bothered by this fact, everyone else is either happy for the couple or doesn't care. Then the Ash Face / Blackface gag ensues as a sort of Laser-Guided Karma for his racism. | |

Hidden Depths | |
| The Mad Adventures of Rabbi Jacob / int_2dc0d2bf | comment |
Hidden Depths: As much he is pretty much a nuisance to Slimane, Victor Pivert has shown that he does have some skills beneath his "bourgeois" behavior. He recognizes a Mao Zedong quote from Farès (although not the Che Guevara one from Slimane). In the bubble-gum factory, he is throwing a barrel full of gum on a pair of Farès's goon and then release a silo full of bubblegum bead causing Farès to slip into the vat. Pivert can be quite the Action Survivor when his life is on the line. When forced to do a Hassidic dance, he executes it flawlessly and is even amazed by his own prowess. | |

Delayed Reaction: One of Farès' mooks guarding the bubblegum factory corrects Pivert (as seen in Badass Boast above) before realizing that maybe he should worry about the intruder who just talked. Later, while talking to one of Farès's men on the phone (thinking he's a policeman), Pivert comments that he can see Farès right here, through the office's window... Cue Oh, Crap! Also Farés at the Gas station, who just gives Slimane a passing-by look before realizing that the man he's chasing is in the nearby car. | |

Politically Incorrect Hero | |
| The Mad Adventures of Rabbi Jacob / int_55232afa | comment |
Politically Incorrect Hero: Pivert, although he's not exactly a hero at first. An overt racist (horrified by a mixed-marriage), chauvinistic (praise a loud-mouthed and rude driver as a "True Frenchman") and somewhat prejudiced against Jews (the Brick Joke implies he "keeps anyways" his Jewish chauffeur, though he actually doesn't display much outright antisemitism outside being suspicious of Jews for reasons that go unexplained). When forced to disguise himself as a Rabbi, he discovers that Judaism and Catholicism have more things in common and becomes more open-minded over the movie. | |

When saying "You won't let her marry a...", she's cut short by Pivert saying "A President of the Republic! My daughter will marry a President of the Republic!" | |

The Reveal: Slimane mentions more than once how he really likes redheads. Meanwhile, Pivert's daughter Antoinette, who is supposed to be getting married, is wearing an elaborate headdress that covers all of her hair. At the climax, the headdress is blown off—revealing Antoinette's long and very red hair. A delighted Slimane whisks her onto the helicopter and off to his home country, where she'll apparently be First Lady. | |

Where the Hell Is Springfield? | |
| The Mad Adventures of Rabbi Jacob / int_8504b817 | comment |
Where the Hell Is Springfield?: Slimane is a rebel leader of a country — somewhere. Seemingly in North Africa, part of what was once the French colonial empire. | |

One of Farès' mooks guarding the bubblegum factory corrects Pivert (as seen in Badass Boast above) before realizing that maybe he should worry about the intruder who just talked. | |

In the bubble-gum factory, he is throwing a barrel full of gum on a pair of Farès's goon and then release a silo full of bubblegum bead causing Farès to slip into the vat. Pivert can be quite the Action Survivor when his life is on the line. | |

Standard Snippet | |

Standard Snippet: What the music for the Hasidic dance has become. It wasn't an authentic one but specially composed for the movie by Vladimir Cosma, though still inspired by klezmer (traditional Hasidic music). Still, it has been readily adopted by the French Ashkenazi Jewish community ever since, and chances are high you'll hear it at Bar Mitzvahs or Jewish weddings. | |

Nice Jewish Boy: Salomon is very helpful, even though he's quite bitter towards his boss (for very good reasons). Special mention goes to the guys who accompany Rabbi Jacob to the airport. Their cab ends up stuck in a traffic jam and time is running out, so what do they do? They all get out and simply... lift the cab, and carry it to the free part of the road. | |

Alter Kocker: No surprise, in a movie full of Jewish characters, the older ones evoke this archetype (save for Rabbi Jacob). Most notably stand-up comedian Popeck, for whom it was a trademark, in the minor role of Moishe Schmoll (even though he was only 38 at the time, he would keep many mannerisms of that character in his trademark stage persona as he got older). | |
