Disco Page #5

Synopsis: Didier Travolta (Franck Dubosc) is a 40-year-old disco music fan who has no job, lives with his mother, and has a son he hasn't seen for a while in Britain. The mother of his son refuses to send him their son for the holidays unless he can offer him a real vacation, not just going to bars of the French port city of Le Havre. As the jobless Didier has no money, the only way he can see his son is by winning a dance contest organized by his friend Jackson (Gérard Depardieu), with the prize a vacation to Australia for two. Didier persuades his two former dancing buddies (Samuel Le Bihan and Abbes Zahmani) to get the once-famous "Bee Kings" group back on the dancefloor. Years have passed and they need a dance coach (Emmanuelle Béart) to get them ready for the competition. They soon find out that even if they once were the best, times have changed. Jobs, wives, love, ridiculous looks, old-fashioned clothes, talented contestants... Can they reclaim their past disco glory?

in the stars.

But we have to do a makeover

on our number.

A pal is filming a self-critique

tape on us tonight at the Gin Fizz.

Jackson.

lt'd be great if you came.

Not tonight, l have to...

We need you, coach, or else

we're out of the running.

We have to be more with it,

be more...

Modern, l suppose.

That, too.

Good evening, chickadees.

Welcome to the world

of the 80s.

And now,

Disco...

lnferno!

l fear the worst.

l'm warning you:
just 5 minutes.

Don't start, Guillaume.

Or else forget it.

Come on.

These Polacks from the Varsovia

worry me.

They're hot on the half-turns.

Without your strike, they wouldn't

be stuck here and we'd be cool.

Let's get started.

You filming us?

Yeah. Hold on.

Start their music.

lt's rolling.

This is great. Thanks.

lt's the dream team.

l'll be at the bar.

l don't know what your friends

do in real life,

but l have to work tomorrow.

So l'm bowing out

of this three-ring circus.

There's bus service back.

Stop it! They're super.

They're totally wild.

l don't want to see my sister

become a cornball!

l have every reason to have qualms

about this place.

You promised to make an effort.

But this isn't an effort,

it's a sacrifice.

Totem time.

That's us.

The Bee Kings.

Noneye...

We call him that

because he cries with one eye.

Drives the biggest crane in Europe.

l say the biggest,

but it's not really.

To be exact, for purists,

the biggest is in Hamburg.

Walter's weird.

He's no talker.

lt's a mask.

He got dumped by a girl, Vronique.

He never got over it.

l won my first dance contest

in these socks.

"The Yellow Dwarf" in Fcamp.

My good luck socks.

Jackson kept them.

A funny guy.

The Eddie Barclay of Le Havre.

lncurable playboy.

He stole Aznavour's wife.

Among others.

So, young lovers,

went up for a jiggle

in Daddy's dungeon?

You're Jackson, l suppose?

ln person.

My ballet teacher.

Other her a whiskey & Coke.

lt's on me.

May Tina Turner preserve you!

You sure? No kebab, no quiche?

l know a place...

No, thanks.

My brother's waiting.

But thanks for this evening.

So long, Kings.

You're great.

Thank you.

Hey, guys...

lt's love.

A call for you.

Who is it?

Mr. Courbet from Radio RTL.

"lt's Our Business Too,"

your program on RTL.

We have Mr. Barleycorn on the line.

Mr. Barleycorn, we're trying

to contact Luxembourg

and get Mr. Fournier on the line.

l remind you:
he is the head

of Gondolo lnc.

l think we have him on the line.

- Bastard!

- Julien Courbet here.

"lt's Our Business Too" on RTL.

Mr. Fournier,

you promised Mr. Barleycorn,

who's on line with us,

to deliver 20 waterbeds to him

and his neighbors.

My question is simple:
