Everything for love (Original title: Tout ça… pour ça! ) Is a French comedy film by Claude Lelouch from 1993.
action
Lino, Henri Poncet and Jacques Grandin are about to go to court. All three lost their wives in different ways and then formed a gang:
Lino is a waiter in a coffee house. He's passionate about gambling, but he runs into debt. Since he cannot repay it, he starts a relationship with the debtor's sister, Esmeralda. He soon actually falls in love with her, but keeps playing, running into debt at her expense, and cannot take it when she turns away from him. On July 14th, he threw himself into the Seine in grief and met the hairdresser Jacques Grandin in the hospital. He absolutely loves his wife Marilyne and their asthma-ill daughter Salomé. When his wife and daughter are on the cure, he receives a call that his wife is cheating on the hotel waiter in the distance. In desperation, he drinks a bottle of shampoo and ends up in the hospital. He and Lino are released after a while. Jacques plans to secretly fetch his daughter and emigrate to Canada with her and Lino. For this purpose he wants to take out a loan from his bank, but the banker refuses him the money. Without further ado, he overwhelms him with a letter opener and takes 25,000 francs that have just been handed in for the examination. With Lino he wants to be driven to the train station by taxi driver Henri. Henri's car is like a mobile home. He earns some money on the side by offering passengers tea or coffee mixed with sleeping pills and then robbing the sleeping guests and leaving them in backyards.
Instead of going to the train station, both can be driven to the hotel where Maryline is staying with Salomé for a cure. On the way, they learn that Jacques is being wanted by the police because of his bank robbery. Without further ado, they join forces. They steal a mobile home and later the daily income in a restaurant. Then, as alleged investigators, they steal numerous 500-franc notes, which they issue as counterfeit money, and live free of charge in a hotel after they appeared as a false surveyor to measure the new route of a high-speed train. Their carefree life is suddenly stopped when they fall for two hitchhikers who in turn rob them with a trick. Now they drive to the spa hotel to get Salomé. Lino and Henri pretend to be Michelin testers, but a police officer in the hotel recognizes them and has the three men arrested.
A special judge-defense constellation results in the process. The three men's lawyers, Marie and Fabrice Lenormand, are married. Marie, in turn, has an affair with the judge in the Francis Barrucq case. Marie and Francis try to legitimize their relationship in a parallel plot by pairing Fabrice and Francis' wife Allessandra with each other. This goes so far that both couples undertake a Mont Blanc ascent together, during which Fabrice and Allessandra actually show interest in each other and later act more and more passionately from a distance. In the end, it's Marie who keeps track. Since Fabrice and Francis go into the process emotionally battered, she relies on the woman factor in her defense. All three men are also presented with the help of psychological tricks as victims who simply loved too much. The judge has an understanding and the men are acquitted.
