OSS 117:Cairo, Nest of Spies & OSS 117:Lost in Rio

I just discovered these two brilliant parodies. Jean Dujardin (The Artist) is hilarious as 007 and does the best
Sean Connery take ever. these films where made in 2006 and 2008 but are made to look period.
Again, Brilliant!

Seen them both and they are really funny Bond parodies. Jean Dujardin is a hoot....his take on the suave 60's superspy is a perfect melding of Connery's Bond and Inspector Clouseu.

Interestingly, the OSS 117 films are based upon a series of French films from the 60's starring John Gavin (who almost was Bond) as an American CIA / OSS agent (the American Secret Service / CIA was known as the "OSS" during WWII).
