Short description

Sergeant Cruchot and his faithful comrades have been sent to the International Congress of Gendarmerie in N.Y.

What's left behind the scenes

The musical 'battle of nerves' that Cruchot engages in with the New York hooligans is a parody of the musical 'West Side Story'.
The film was released in the Soviet Union under the title "Mr. Kruchot in New York."
During breaks between filming, Louis de Funès enjoyed parodying American police officers in front of the public, for which he was presented with a set of authentic police uniforms by the officers themselves.

During breaks in filming, Louis de Funès enjoyed parodying American police officers in front of the public, for which the latter presented him with a complete set of genuine police uniform.
Filming took place in Saint-Tropez and New York from May 1st to July 10th, 1965.
A segment of this film featuring gendarmes on a tour of New York was used in "The Gendarme on Vacation."
The film contains a blooper: at the beginning of the film, during the journey from Saint-Tropez to New York, the group of gendarmes boards a black van with the number 212 3955 at Paris airport, but during the ride, we see them traveling in exactly the same van, but with the number 212 3907.
