M'sieur la Caille (1955)
Film Synopsis
Pépé La Vache denounces Dominique le Corse to the police because he has amorous designs on his mistress, Fernande. She, however, has no interest in him and prefers Jésus La Caille, a man of dubious morals. Threatened by Pépé, La Caille beats a hasty retreat. Dominique escapes from prison and intervenes when Pépé tries to force his attentions on Fernande. In the ensuing mêlée, Pépé is killed and Dominique takes flight, leaving Fernande to take the rap for Pépé's murder.© James Travers
