Entre eles estava um contra-parente de Asterix que, ao perceber que os bretões não resistiriam por muito tempo ao ataque romano, resolve partir em busca de Asterix para conseguir um pouco da poção mágica que lhes dá uma força descomunal. Asterix e seus amigos concordam, afinal os bretões sempre ajudaram os gauleses nas batalhas contra o exército romano. Eles enchem um barril com poção suficiente para toda a tribo bretã e partem rumo à grande ilha. No caminho deparam-se com uma galera romana que, embora tenha sido derrotada, volta para avisar que os bretões estão recebendo a poção. Daí para frente têm início as mais divertidas aventuras de Asterix e Obelix para evitar que os romanos se apoderem da poção.

"Les petits matins" is a story of eighteen-year old Agathe (Agathe Aëms) with a firm independence of men even if she uses them to get to the côte d'azur.

But this is all very light stuff, nothing too intellectual. But it's often charming, and there's a bevy of well-known actors involved. Jean -Claude Brialy (the pompous, self absorbed male lead of Rohmer's "Claire's Knee"), Claude Rich, Lino Ventura, François Perrier, Pierre Brasseur, and the couple Bernard Blier & Arletty, who team up here for the first time since Marcel Carné's "Hôtel du Nord" (1938).
