De Boezemvriend (The Bosom Friend) is a 1982 Dutch film directed by Dimitri Frenkel Frank. It is loosely based on Nikolai Gogol's satirical play The Government Inspector. Comedian André van Duin plays the charlatan-dentist Fred van der Zee (Professor Pas-du-Pain) who is mistaken for Napoleon's delegate.[citation needed]
