Get Out Your Handkerchiefs French Prparez vos mouchoirs is a 1978 French romantic comedy film directed by Bertrand Blier. The film won the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film at the 51st Academy Awards.

Raoul, Solange and Stphane work at a boys camp in the summer, where they meet a 13yearold math prodigy named Christian Belil Riton, who is bullied by the other boys. Solange becomes protective of Christian and one night lets him sleep in her bed. She awakes to find Christian exploring her body and scolds them. They make up and have sex, despite a drastic age difference. Afterwards, Solange becomes dependent on the boy, to the point where she, Raoul and Stphane kidnap him from his boarding school. Christian eventually impregnates her, and the film ends with Raoul and Stphane walking away after serving six months in prison.Director Bertrand Blier wrote the screenplay from the middle, starting by writing the scene where Raoul and Stphane fantasize about meeting composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. While writing the script, he was planning to use Dewaere and Depardieu in the leads, having previously worked with them on Going Places 1974. The familiarity meant the men were comfortable together. David Denby of New York believed the film was made in the spirit of the French New Wave. ........
