    7/10
    Chabrol's use of Tchaikovsky at a key juncture of the film is a remarkable choice for the tale
    What's good? The obese Depardieu in a likeable toned-down role. Marie Bunel, a little known movie actress, proving elderly women are still attractive to men. Chabrol's use of Tchaikovsky's "Pathetique" for a key sequence underscoring the entire tale. And the W H Auden's end-quote "There is always another story, there is more than meets the eye." A good cop with a kind heart for the bad guys.
