Les parasites (1999)
5/9
...
"Les Parasites" (1999) is a chaotic and hilarious French comedy centered around Oulage's ill-fated attempt to win over the girl of his dreams, Brigitte, at a New Year's Eve costume party. Oulage meticulously plans the perfect midnight kiss, but his romantic ambitions are constantly thwarted by Brigitte's entourage of truly "parasitical" friends. This motley crew includes a clingy ex, a volatile police officer, a paranoid maniac, a drug-addled mess, and a cunning Cuban immigrant, each with their own set of eccentricities and destructive tendencies. Their combined antics turn Oulage's quest for love into a nightmarish gauntlet of comedic mishaps. While Philippe de Chauveron is best known for his later box-office hits like "Serial (Bad) Weddings," "Les Parasites" deserves a spot among his best work for showcasing his early talent for crafting ensemble comedies. It demonstrates his knack for blending over-the-top characters with relatable anxieties, creating a uniquely French brand of humor. The film's tightly wound plot, escalating absurdities, and surprisingly poignant moments mark it as a precursor to Chauveron's more commercially successful endeavors, highlighting his evolution as a director with a keen eye for social satire and character-driven comedy.
