Philippe Lacheau

Philippe Lacheau is a name that means a lot more in France than abroad, and I think that gap is itself interesting. As an actor, director and writer, he built a comedy brand around his Babysitting films and ensemble farces that consistently fill French cinemas. His humor is broad and unashamed, which critics outside France tend to underrate, but I respect anyone who can reliably write, direct and star in commercial hits at once. He is French, born near Paris in Fontenay-sous-Bois. He is a reminder that a thriving national comedy scene rarely needs Hollywood's approval to matter.
