The Dinner Game (1998) (original) (raw)

Every Wednesday night, wealthy Paris publisher Pierre Brochant and his friends try to outdo one
another by bringing the most flagrantly idiotic person they can find to join them for dinner. He
who finds the biggest dope, wins. Pierre thinks he's got a thoroughbred nincompoop on his
hands in accountant Francois Pignon, who works for the the Finance Ministry and builds scale
replicas of monuments from matchsticks. What Pierre hasn't counted on is Pignon's ability to
generate compound problems.
