French comedy films are comedy films produced in France. Comedy is also the most popular French genre in cinema.〔 〕 Comic films began to appear in significant numbers during the era of silent films, roughly 1895 to 1930. The visual humour of many of these silent films relied on slapstick and burlesque. A very early comedy short was ''Watering the Gardener'' (1895) by the Lumière brothers. In his native France and throughout the world, Max Linder was a major comic feature and might qualify as the first true film star. Later, when the sound came in 1927,〔The first French non silent movie, ''Les Trois Masques'' by André Hugon, was released in Paris on 31 October 1929.〕 Comedy films took another swing, due to laughter can now be caused not only by the burlesque situations, but also the dialogues. Always a favorite of the public, as well as acclaimed, French cinema has many comedy films that are among the biggest box-office success in France. Some were the subject of remakes in other countries and have had great success worldwide, sometimes rewarded with prizes. == Characteristics of French comedy films == French comedy films are very often social comedies. That is a big difference compared to American comedies.〔"La comédie française se différencie () par son aspect social, une lutte des classes généralement absente des comédies américaines." .〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「French comedy films」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
