A popular reference I’ve seen pointed out is Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner (1967), though I would update its mention by acknowledging The Dinner Game (1998) in the same breath.
When it comes to comedy, the French like nothing better than a buddy movie, especially if the story revolves around an odd couple: My Best Friend (Daniel Auteuil and Dany Boon), Après Vous (Daniel Auteuil and José Garcia), The Closet (Daniel Auteuil and Gérard Depardieu)…and we’re only at the “A’s”!
Hot Fuzz (2007)
Directed by Edgar Wright
influenced by The Dinner Game (1998), The Closet (2001), The Valet (2006)
Characters
The hero of his new movie, “The Valet,” is named François Pignon, but then so was the hero of other Veber films, including “The Dinner Game” (1998) and “The Closet” (2001).

As far as technical prowess goes, one could do a lot worse than a campy evening of entertainment than The Bye Bye Man , although this is a far cry from Title’s most prolific offering, 1995’s Cameron Diaz headlined The Last Supper , a black comedy about a group of friends who invite people over and based on the interaction, decide whether to poison them and use them as fertilizer for the tomatoes or let them live (it also sounds like the more relevant English language version of France’s The Dinner Game ).
