Oss 117: Cairo, Nest of Spies

When his longtime partner (Philippe Lefebvre) is presumed dead and his boss (Claude Brosset) sends him to Egypt in 1955 to run a coverup poultry operation in this hilariously funny, tongue-in-cheek, satirical, pratfall-laden 007 spoof, a womanizing, clueless, Maxwell-Smart-esque French spy (Jean Dujardin) must contend with a knife-wielding Egyptian princess (Aure Atika), a vengeful Nazi colonel (Richard Sammel), an Arabic speaking secretary (Bérénice Bejo), and an unhappy competitor (Francois Damiens).
