09/05/2014 Maurice Pialat is known for making even the most grand cinematic ideas feel small and accidental. The meaning of his work embraces you after you've had time to digest what you've seen. This film was well received in its day. Sophie Marceau is solid and stunningly beautiful. And, Gerard Depardieu is just about at the end of his sex symbol days. All of this makes for some interesting moments in a film that never can decide if it wants us to equate police and criminals as one in the same or simply be an off-kilter love story. This is one the few Pialat films that left me cold. See more 07/17/2012 Not exactly Gerard Depardieu's best film. See more 06/17/2010 1/10. Proof that you can take Gerard Depardieu and Sophie Marceau and still make a movie that isn't worth watching. See more 03/15/2009 Le reel au service du genre, ou l'inverse. See more 03/01/2009 Peut-etre le film le moins personnel de Pialat, encore que : il subsiste dans cette histoire d'amour une trace de l'univers du cineaste, notamment dans le traitement du recit. Les images sont magnifiques, Depardieu aussi, mais je ne supporte pas Marceau et Anconina, meme si ici ils sont plus supportables que d'ordinaire, ils m'ont gache le film. Le scenario est assez brouillon aussi ; bref, je comprends que Pialat n'aimait pas ce film, meme s'il est loin d'etre honteux.
