Synopsis by Mark Deming
In this French comedy, Antoine is a Union delegate at a factory that is falling on hard times. With business in a slump, it looks like the factory will have to close its doors, but when Antoine wins the lottery, he uses his new fortune to buy the company and keep the business going. However, it isn't long before Antoine discovers things are a lot tougher for management than he ever imagined. Golden Boy stars Jacques Villeret, Martin Lamotte, Anne Roumanoff, and Virginie Lemoine.
