Monsieur Coccinelle is a 1938 French comedy film directed by Dominique Bernard-Deschamps and starring Pierre Larquey, Jane Loury and Jeanne Provost.
The film's sets were designed by Boris Bilinsky. The plot was based on an original story written by Bernard-Deschamps himself. It is notable for its break with conventional realism, with several scenes that push towards outright fantasy.
The film had trouble securing distribution and initially premiered at an art house venue. It was only during wartime, when it benefited from a national shortage of films, that it received a general release.
