Assassin in the Phonebook

6.1/ 10 9 votes 1962-03-02 1h 33m 0 popularity

Fernandel plays Albert, the unhappy brunt of jokes by his fellow office-workers who goes from the frying pan into the fire. Albert gets caught up in a robbery that also goes from bad to worse when it leads to several murders. Although he is not a killer and essentially innocent, there does not seem to be very much that Albert can do to convince others of the truth.

Director: Léo Joannon
