Lucky Pierre (French: La moutarde me monte au nez, lit. 'The Mustard Is Rising into My Nose'; also known as I'm Losing My Temper) is a 1974 French comedy film written and directed by Claude Zidi, starring Pierre Richard and Jane Birkin.^[1]

Plot

Pierre Durois is a mathematics teacher at an all-girls high school in Aix-en-Provence. He also works as a ghostwriter for his father the mayor, who is seeking re-election, and for his friend who works for a tabloid newspaper.

When Pierre's students sitch the contents of his folders as a joke, a speech for the mayor, an article on Jackie Logan, a famous Hollywood actress, and his students' papers all end up in the wrong hands.

Pierre finds himself on a film set trying to resolve the mix-up, and ends up spending the night at Jackie Logan's house. The tabloids catch wind, and the next day's headlines provoke dismay for the mayor and for Pierre's fiancée.

-One day, to play a joke on Pierre, his students switch the contents of three folders containing papers to grade, a speech for his father, and an article for Patrick on the actress Jackie Logan. Everything is turned upside down and Pierre restores the situation as well as he can. However, while picking up his students' papers that he gave to Patrick by accident, Pierre finds himself on the set of Jackie Logan's film. Then, through a series of events, he winds up at her place, where he spends the night. The next day, the tabloids run exaggerated headlines of the situation, much to the chagrin of Hubert Durois (as this harms his chances at re-election) and Danièle, Pierre's fiancée
