About Les Aventures des Pieds-Nickelés
Sherlock Coco, famous detective, tries to thwart the machiavellian plans of the trio of shock. Croquignol, Ribouldingue and Filochard must be extra vigilant, but the profit motive is too strong. As a corollary, the famous pink diamond is also of interest to their legendary enemy, Jo Papillon. But always inventive, they will work out multiple scams and tricks to reach their goals.
Directed by Marcel Aboulker, Les Aventures des Pieds-Nickelés leans on a strong ensemble — Rellys, Robert Dhéry, Maurice Baquet — 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 1948.
