Oh my God, what a great French Noir, what atmosphere, almost perfect movie, just anchored on well developed screenplay, the casting hadn't a superlative stars properly speaking as Jean Rochefort, Claude Dauphin, Charles Vanel among others secondary players, just still unknown the young and gorgeous Michèle Mercier on small role, a five piece Paris's gang has to buy drugs from Marseille's dealer, but at once 500.000 dollars, one of them steal the money from the delivery man on a train, seems a perfect crime, one by one was killed along the way, the crime usually leave some tracks, traces, footprints, the distrust prevails among thieves, suspicions, betrayal, the director Jacques Deray didn't adds any sub plot, focusing in a breathtaking non-stopping acting, a minor flaw wasn't easy noticed, otherwise will be perfect, pay attention carefully when you watch on early scenes, the mistake was there, further, proving that to do a great movie not quite to have greatest stars, they are necessary, but with a unusual story blended with smart screenplay under the baton of the wise director, then on way straight to the success!!!
