Maurice Labro (1910-1987) was the perfect Saturday-night-at-the movies director ;totally devoid of ambition,he made painstaking works
though."Les Gosses Mènent L'Enquête " was an average attempt at another "Disparus De Saint-Agil "."L'Heroique Monsieur Boniface " and " Boniface Somnambule "might possess considerable appeal for Fernandel's fans.On the other hand ,the Leguignon movies starring Yves Deniaud are dreadful stuff.He carried on with the tradition of the thirties military coarse comedies ("le Colonel " movies).Having made a spy thriller long before the Bond craze ("Action immediate"1957 ) he resumed the adventures of secret agent Francis Coplan aka FX18 in the sixties ("Coplan Prend Des Risques " 1964).He retired after 1966.
