Les Arnaud
1967 Crime / Drama
Review
In one of his rare dramatic roles, Bourvil gives a sympathetic
performance in a film that combines melodrama and social realism to a
moderate degree of success. The film’s moralistic subtext is
somewhat laboured but it is an engaging piece, even if it seems to
belong to an earlier decade.
