* WagTheDirector: Once he became a superstar, he often decided himself who to cast (often his own posse, primarily his friends Creator/MichelGalabru and Creator/ClaudeGensac) in the films he headlined with the directors (often Édouard Molinaro and Jean Girault) having no say in the matter, as well as writing or improvising many gags not in the script or reshooting scenes many times till he felt the scenes were perfect. One director who refused him much of this luxury was Creator/GerardOury (de Funès actually didn't mind, and wanted to collaborate further with Oury until his health prevented further collaborations from materializing). Whether this ended up the reason the Oury films are often considered de Funès' very best is up for debate.

This habit from De Funès also caused a [[HostilityOnTheSet longtime feud]] between him and Creator/JeanLefebvre, they never appeared in a film together again after ''Film/LeGendarmeEnBalade''.
