OSS 117: Cairo, Nest of Spies
2006. France. Directed by Marcel Hazanavicius. Screenplay by Jean-François Halin. With Jean Dujardin, Bérénice Bejo. Before Ian Fleming’s 007 James Bond there was Jean Bruce’s OSS 117 Hubert Bonisseur de la Bath, who debuted in 1949 and has appeared in over 200 books. In this incarnation, the French secret agent is as ostensibly debonair as James Bond—and as maladroit as Inspector Clouseau. The most recent collaboration between this film’s director and star is the Academy Award–winning The Artist. Print courtesy Music Box Films. 99 min.
