Le tueur

In this movie, once again after LE PACHA, Jean Gabin plays a police commissioner for whom the new investigation methods using computer are not sufficient enough to fight against crime; too smooth for his taste. Some kind of DIRTY HARRY like scheme, if you prefer. A very early seventies "fashion". Here, you have not only Jean Gabin as the lead, but also Fabio Testi, just before he made also NADA in France. Fabio Testi nearly steals the film from Gabin; he was the main polizzotesco - Italian crime flicks from the seventies - star in Italy, so it is normal that in this French Italian production he was hired. A good and solid French crime yarn, where Gabin only repeats himself. But who will complain because of this?
