Storyline
Plot Summary |
Is it because his father was a groom that Adhémar Pomme has a long horse head and a horse- toothed smile? Maybe but the fact is that his head has invariably caused laughter whatever the circumstances, which is the tragedy of his life. After having worked as an undertaker, a theater prompter, a casino bouncer, and so on, and failing at each job, he applies out of desperation to an institution where those rejected for physical reasons can hide and live together. But Adhémar immediately starts... laughing at them and gets kicked out as a result! In the end though, he finds his way as a circus artist Written by Guy Bellinger |

Quotes |
Le mari trompé:
I've been married four times. I've been cuckolded four times. My wives, they say I drive them to infidelity. The first one told me a head like mine was an encouragement, the second one it is a permit, the third one a challenge. As for the fourth one she said she cheated on me to avoid being ridiculous!
