The third installment of the film "The Tuche" was released in the cinema on January 30 and already has two million admissions in a week. Back on a success.
- Humanistic values
Unlike his counterparts (Welcome to Ch'tis, Camping ...), the comedy Olivier Baroux is good spirit. Certainly, this family from the North, living in Bouzolles, has a layer: lazy father, girl fan of reality TV, grandmother dyslexic ... Yet, if we laugh on the back of these limited brains, we also discover their human qualities . Values of generosity and mutual help. Like the endearing family chef played by former Robin Hood Jean-Paul Rouve, the Tuche are kind and friendly.
- An air of social reconciliation
Who would not dream to win a hundred million euros in the Loto? In the first chapter, the family moved to Monaco but bumped into the snobbery of its inhabitants, before becoming the rooster of the Rock. Like Untouchables, Les Tuche portrays a utopia: where rich and poor forget their difference and reconcile themselves around good gags. At the risk of passing for a naive fune, even populist. An angelic but reassuring morality.
- A big shoot of nostalgia
Note the winks to a whole mythology of the 80s. Thus, the over 40 can shed a tear at the evocation of The house in the meadow - the beginning of a memorable parody with Jeff Tuche in Charles Ingalls - or humming Like a hurricane, the tube of Stephanie of Monaco. While the younger ones will identify with a contemporary pop culture, Kim Kardashian, adored by the girl, to the cult of footballers (the job of his boyfriend).
- A mirror of the time
"Working less to earn more" is the leitmotiv of Jeff Tuche, business and clinical boss (Les Tuche 2) inducing his employees to laziness. Echo mocking Western ultra-liberalism, the film is close to satire and touches, casually, serious subjects: social fracture, unemployment, homosexuality repressed ... Some dialogues within this family resonate like lessons of humanism.
- A sense of the absurd
But the success of these anti-heroes may be due more to their tendency to do anything. Clothes, accents, haircuts, everything overflows. This comedy is funny when it moves away from any narrative logic in favor of a happening of flashy colors, road trips riddled and happy shouting. The spirit Tuche is then at the paroxysm of the zinzin. This uninhibited and delirious humor is good.
(*) The Tuche 3 Olivier Baroux, with Jean-Paul Rouve and Isabelle Nanty , already in theaters.
