Summary:
L'affaire est dans le sac: Pierre Prévert's directional debut. It follows the crazy plan of a hatter, Benjamin Déboisé and his accomplice, to kidnap the son of Hollister, a millionaire. However, they mistakenly kidnap Hollister himself instead. Hollister, bored with life, is actually delighted to be involved in the adventure. Voyage-surprise : A retired bus driver fulfills his lifelong dream of providing an extended "voyage surprise" for unsuspecting vacationers. They soon realize, while riding in the old man's home-made bus, that he hasn't bothered to plan any kind of itinerary. As a result, they end up in completely preposterous situations, of course.
