Synopsis

How Did You Get In? We Didn't See You Leave (original title: Par où t'es rentré? On t'a pas vu sortir) is a 1984 comedy film starring Jerry Lewis, marking his significant return to French cinema. Lewis plays a double role as two identical American brothers who arrive in Paris, leading to a series of comedic misunderstandings and chaos. The film is filled with slapstick humor and classic farcical situations that showcase Jerry Lewis’s distinct comedic style. The storyline revolves around identity confusion and mistaken encounters as the brothers navigate through various Parisian misadventures. Though the film attempts to blend American and French comedic elements, it offers a lighthearted, if uneven, entertainment experience primarily targeting Lewis’s fans.
