Trivia
Louis de Funès's character is Michel Leboeuf, of the vice squad, and he often clucks and moves his arms like a chicken. One should know that in France, police officers are derogatorily known as "poulets" (chickens), as in English speaking countries they are called "pigs".

Good old times, with nudity and burlesque humour

You got to be such a snob, with a very limited horizont and a shallow mind to make a bad review on this movie.

I feel sorry for those who can't enjoy a film from another world, from 70 years ago, when things were simpler, the laughs were more honestly and even the nudity were more intriguing.

You just have to enjoy it, a rare experience you will remember.
