Many people at the time thought that Delon played "Jeff" (the posters were deceptive);he actually plays Laurent ,a young gangster who,after a holdup,is searching for his boss who has left the gang and of course has taken all the dough.The runaway's lover,Eva accompanies him.

This is a moderately entertaining detective film.It was not the first time Delon had worked with Jean Herman.The previous year,they had made a better thriller "Adieu L'Ami" also starring Charles Bronson.Here,Delon played opposite Mireille Darc who was his girlfriend at the time .But the best is once again,François de Roubaix's tuneful delicate score.

Modern if you consider the topic, and of course the five gangsters waiting in a gymnasium after a heist. Doesn't that remind you anything? A masterpiece directed by an American director whose first name is Quentin T ????

I don't know if RESERVOIR DOGS was inspired by this one but it is a shame that this film is not more released in France. Alain Delon was already famous after PLEIN SOLEIL and LE SAMOURAI, and LA PISCINE and LE CLAN DES SICILIENS were pulled the same year I guess. And the ending is sooo surprising too. No one could foresee it. In 1997, there was a French crime film showing gangsters talking in a room after a heist, J'IRAI AU PARADIS CAR L'ENFER EST ICI. Maybe inspired by JEFF.
