The Gendarme and the Gendarmettes
Directed by Tony Aboyantz, Jean Girault
Produced by Société Nouvelle de Cinématographie, SND
A lighthearted French comedy romp that balances slapstick workplace chaos with a kidnapping plot, driven by physical humor and romantic distraction rather than genuine peril.
Cruchot's police office moves into a new building. They do not only get high tech equipment, but also four young female police officers to educate. All of them scramble to work with them -- and cause pure chaos while being distracted by the fine ladies. Then they get into real trouble when one after the other of their female colleagues is kidnapped.
