Signs of Disrepair: In Pascal's bank, there is a poster that says "Chez nous vraiment, le client est dans un cocon" ("With us, really, the customer is in a cocoon"). When the employee is sitting just in front of the poster, she hides some letters and the poster says "Chez nous vraiment, le client est un con" ("With us, really, the customer is a bloody idiot"). In Didier's bank, there is a poster that says "Ici, on vous communique les taux 24h/24" ("Here we pass on the rates to you 24 hours a day"). When the employee is sitting just in front of the poster, he hides some letters and the poster says "Ici, on vous nique 24h/24" ("Here, we screw you 24 hours a day"). | |

Unexpected Inheritance | |
| The Three Brothers / int_bd9beaf4 | comment |
Unexpected Inheritance: Inverted. The three brothers thought that the succession of their mother was settled, but they are surprised to hear that they actually have to pay an extra amount. | |

Subverted Trope | |
| The Three Brothers / int_c145f69b | comment |
Subverted in the end: Michaël finds a real winning ticket. Double subverted because the winning ticket only gives the opportunity to participate in a TV show. During this show, Didier only wins the lowest amount: 100,000 French francs ($17,000). | |

Mocking Music | |
| The Three Brothers / int_c5193552 | comment |
Mocking Music: After the debt collector ends up victim of Electrified Bathtub, the trio switches their car's radio on as they drive away... and singer Claude François (who died of this in 1978) gets mentioned on it right away. | |

Never Win the Lottery | |
| The Three Brothers / int_f645ee0d | comment |
Never Win the Lottery: In the bar, Bernard pretends he has a winning ticket to get away without paying anything. The ticket is actually a loser. Subverted in the end: Michaël finds a real winning ticket. Double subverted because the winning ticket only gives the opportunity to participate in a TV show. During this show, Didier only wins the lowest amount: 100,000 French francs ($17,000). | |

Gold Digger | |
| The Three Brothers / int_f6b2bfb7 | comment |
Gold Digger: Pascal is in a relationship with Moss and he tries to persuade her to marry him because she is very rich and so he can live comfortably and do nothing. Didier's mother-in-law is also rich and he married Viviane primarily because he hopes to inherit her fortune. | |

Right in Front of Me | |
| The Three Brothers / int_f6b5441c | comment |
Right in Front of Me: At the party at Moss's, Bernard tells three random guys that a TV show is crap. One of the guys immediately goes away. Another one tells Bernard that this was the host of the TV show. Bernard then explains that he did not want to critize the host and that the real stupid people are the bosses of the TV channel. He second guy suddenly goes away: he was the boss of the channel. | |

Riches to Rags: Pascal was wealthy and he loses everything in the course of the film, to the point of living like a tramp. Didier was less well-off, but he also loses everything he had. | |
