    This neo French Noir explores an usual matters where a crime clash against the powerful politician establishment, Lino Venture defying this corrupt system helped by a crazy partner at Paris, as they say "Starts a dream" this forgotten gem from the mid-seventies has a strong persona of the incorruptible cop the Commissioner Verjeat, when expose a politician at public space by vengeance over a death of a policemen from his department, aftermaths he is "promoted" by another precinct, actually it came front above, trying throw off the menace, aside Ventura a true French institution on a his apogee, has another highlight on movie his partner the odd Inspector Lefrevre (Patrick Dewaere) a sort of opposite of Verjeat, fabulous unknown Noir picture from Pierre Granier-Deferre, underrated!!!
