| RRP Klouk (Bernard Crombey) is a car salesman who has to miss a family holiday to deliver a luxury Chevrolet station wagon to his boss' wealthy client. He decides to take his friend Philippe (Xavier Saint-Macary) along with him for the ride across the length of France from Lille to the Cote d'Azur. On the way they give a lift to hitchhiker Charles (Etienne Chicot) who also brings along his friend Daniel (Patrick Bouchitey). A buddy road movie that came together from genuine friendship and developed throughout the months-long script workshop giving the film a casual and naturalistic quality that pre-dates Richard Linklater's similar approaches by some decade, Fill Er Up with Super is one of many touching road movie comedies about youth in a line of classics. A meditation on friendship and masculinity, it was voted one of the greatest of all French films by Time Out Paris which described it as a precious secret, one which could be likened to a documentary, yet in its more surreal moments retains a freshness larger than life.BLU-RAY SPECIAL FEATURES2K restoration of the film from the original negativeOriginal uncompressed mono PCM audioThree interview short films with the cast directed by Cavalier: My Wife Lives in Fear with Etienne Chicot (2011, 4 mins), It's a Full House with Bernard Crombey (2011, 6 mins) and The King of the Bottle with Patrick Bouchitey (2011, 8 mins)Friends First and Foremost: An interview with Bernard Crombey - in this video interview the star discusses his work on the film, his collaborators and his career (2019, 28 mins)An appreciation of Fill Er Up with Super by Cahiers du Cinema deputy editor Charlotte GarsonNewly translated English subtitles
