“La vérité si je mens !” est une comédie culte qui a marqué toute une génération. On y retrouve une énergie débordante, des personnages hauts en couleur et un humour typiquement parisien, à la fois tendre et mordant. Richard Anconina et José Garcia forment un duo irrésistible, plein de malice et de complicité. Au-delà des répliques devenues mythiques, le film dégage une vraie chaleur humaine : celle d’un groupe, d’un quartier, d’une famille choisie. Même des années plus tard, il garde cette joie communicative et ce ton unique qui font tout son charme.

Synopsis

The sentimental and comedic adventures of Eddie, a non-Jew trying to pass as Jewish though totally ignorant of Jewish traditions, as he works in a Jewish community.
