April Fools' Day or Poisson d'avril, is a French comedy film from 1954, directed by Gilles Grangier, written by Michel Audiard, starring Bourvil, Annie Cordy and Louis de Funès.
Honest garage mechanic, faithful husband and good father, Emile Dupuy was persuaded by the patter of a salesman bazaar which makes him buy a cane fishing model perfected with the money intended for the washing machine whose dream his wife Charlotte. Not daring to tell him, and he will lie, small wholesale lies lies, finds himself in an inextricable situation.
