Propaganda Under the Cut:

Dave:

hes literally just some guy <3

Paul:

Gets drunk, ship wrecks, the alcohol in his blood puts him in hibernation in the ice, instead of killing him. He's woken up 70 years later, but he doesnt know time has passed, and his family try to keep up the charade until his grandson-in-law cracks down and yells the whole truth at him because he cant stand it anymore.

Claude Gensac & Louis de Funès dans Hibernatus, 1969.

[republique-francaise-officiel]

reasons why everyone should love Hibernatus:

everyone is chaotic af

the guy fake-dating his own wife

the music is neat

vaguely scifi, or at least intending to be, but from 1969 and it aged rather well

a guy who's younger than his granddaughter and thinks she's his mother. Gets overly protective of her much to the dismay of her actual son, who he wants to throw out of the house because he doesn't know him

wakes up from 50 years long coma, immediately starts flirting with the first girl he sees, then steals another guy's fiancée

they put the whole neighbourhood, if not city, back to its 1905 state, BUT they still left the TV in the living room because why not
