Mais Qu'est-Ce Que J'Ai Fait Au Bon Dieu Pour Avoir Une Femme Qui Boit dans Les Cafes Avec Les Hommes

The main distinguishing feature of this comedy could be its long title, perhaps the longest in cinematic history. Director Jan Saint-Hamont follows up his 1979 film about a European-Algerian family with the same ethnic focus here. This time around the "Pied-Noirs," or French-Algerians, are represented by a successful businessman and his family. The ineptly tyrannical patriarch proves to be too much for his wife, and she reacts in a distinctly non-traditional manner. For most viewers, the success of the earlier film is not quite duplicated in this second effort. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, All Movie Guide
