About Family Jewels
The head of an aristocratic family died, so everyone gather to mourn him and see who gets what from his estate. Greed, lust, love and class conflict between the family and their payed servants create a real mess rather quickly.
Directed by Jean-Claude Laureux, Family Jewels leans on a strong ensemble — Françoise Brion, Corinne O'Brien, Michel Fortin — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1975.
