Movie overview and plot by Anagha Shashank

Movie in-short: N/A

Movie story-line: The title role in the French comedy-fantasy A Martian in Paris is filled by Darry Cowl. The higher-ups in Mars want to learn all about that strange commodity, peculiar to the planet Earth, known as "Love". Darry soon figures out what makes the world go 'round when he meets the gorgeous Nicole Mirel. A Martian in Paris was obviously inspired by the 1960 American comedy A Visit to a Small Planet, which starred Jerry Lewis. Darry Cowl's imitation of Lewis is passable, but it certainly didn't fool the "Le Roi Crazy Jerry" idolators at Cahiers du Cinema and Positif magazine.

Movie synopsis: This film barely qualifies as Science-Fiction but it does succeed as wacky French comedy. Done on a very low budget, filming largely took place in the streets of Paris with the natural citizens of that city involuntarily playing "background extras" who occasionally looked straight at the camera. Even a shaky car chase scene seems to have been done "on the fly" without permits. All of these exposed seams actually add to the film's charms and give it a sense of immediacy. Prolific comic actor Darry Cowl does a sort of one-man show in his usual stuttering, panicky style. It was nice discovering a French comic talent as entertaining as Louis deFunes. After the stiff cornball opening pre-title sequence on a cheesy planet Mars, I expected to be irritated by the film but it ended up moving along so quickly, I had no time to be bored. Definitely an odd bit of Gaullic "psychotronica".
