Good start, but then it gets ruined

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

OPINION 1: thanks to the French Nouvelle Vague,the cinema was taken out to the streets :everything happens in the darkest night,while the city sleeps.Matalon was influenced by this fantastic schoolOPINION 2: the screenplay is nothing ,copying John Huston 's "while the city sleeps " and countless others :the story is monotonous ,nothing in store for the audience 01:the nouvelle vague allowed new actors such as Claude Brasseur to play lead and to show their talents ,far from the old school.02:BrasSeur is not that new :he had been playing since 1956,often supporting parts (sometimes with father Pierre) but even leading acts ("Le Mystere DE La Chambre Jaune"MTV) 01:Dany Carrel has plenty of go and although she is at ease in this modern directing,she acts naturally as Arletty used to do.02:where are Prevert and Jeanson and their lines? 01:the ending is sublime and avoids the maudlin side of melodramatic thrillers ;it's almost an "open ending" ;who knows? 02:they just wanted to economize on film 01: this "mad dog" is the son of Belmondo in the sublime "A Bout DE Soufflé " ;a young man lost in a dark world where he does not know where he stands anymore :the loot becomes something abstract and his enemies heroes of a comic strip he's living in ...O2 :Yada yada yada !

In this, Brasseur plays a villain on the run from both the police and the mob. Good atmosphere in the Paris by Night, including deserted factory, Les Halles market and an empty theatre. The Chatelet one. OK, the actors are not great, but the story is rather solid. After a jewels robbery, mobsters get on fierce gunfights and pursue each other with the police also in the dance.The climax is exciting for this kind of production. We can feel the American influence in this french film noir.The director Eddy Matalon made "nude" movies in the 70's and 80's. Under pseudonyms.
