Definitely one of Edouard Molinaro's better works.
A well-filmed novel, in film noir style, solid and exciting. The somewhat complex intrigue is clearly explained and fascinates and surprises until the end.
Jean Moreau, Gérard Oury, Philippe Nicaud and certainly Claire Maurier perform their roles to the best of their ability.

Solid and exciting crime/film noir. You have to stay focused for a while, but fortunately the plot is not overcomplex/unbelievable.
I like those older French crime films, black and white and preferably with beautiful images of Paris. This time with Jeanne Moreau... well, it's no Stéphane Audran, but it's okay.
