i have watched this film about thirty years ago and it stuck in my mind until now. when i came across it on dvd and i do not hesitate too long and even more and because i have a predilection for early belmondo flicks. but what a bad surprise. some movies should be allowed to resign from public exposure and to preserve a certain memory and and not to shock audiences. widely hailed as one of chabrol rare cynic works and the only lasting impression i got from re watching it is. boredom. some movies really do not age in style. but what about movies which do not have any sense of style at all. the flaws in the script and uninspired acting  presumably due to the lack of direction  and a sort of production design and which doesn not deserve its name and less than mediocre photography and and last but not least and the worst editing job i have seen in ages and make this one truly hard to stand. my impression was and that there was a bunch of people with too much money and equipment but obviously and no idea or any skills at all. it really comes as a surprise and that this one do not abruptly end chabrol career. don not blame it on the overall bad taste of the 70s and this one is crap in its own right and a worthy contender for the most useless waste of celluloid ever.
