Jean-Paul Belmondo plays both shy adventure writer François Merlin and his suave fictional hero, Bob Saint-Clar, in this fast-paced comedy from director Philippe de Broca. Merlin's life begins mixing with his writing, and soon his exploits as Saint-Clar find him romancing the gorgeous Tatiana (Jacqueline Bisset)-who is actually Merlin's neighbor, Christine-and battling the villainous Col. Karpoff (Vittorio Caprioli), in reality the author's publisher, Georges Charron. AKA: "The Magnificent," "The Man from Acapulco".

Schade, ich suche den schon lange ... halt aber in deutscher Sprache.
Ich finde diesen Film einfach toll wie er so seine Fantasie so auslebt.

Belmondo wie er leibt
und lebt. Träume werden
nie Wirklichkeit oder
jeder lebt sein Leben,
dann werden euch Träume
Wirklichkeit. Mit super
genialen Übergängen in
die nächste Episode.
