The writer surely smoke Cannabis

I read the French novel from which this film is inspired. Lousy but pleasant book, and so easily flexible in terms of adaptation that I hardly understand such a result on screen. A mobster from New York arrives in France and is charged to replace an important drug traffic ring. You see, some kind of JOHNNY COOL - the film starring Henry Silva - topic, which would have been great. But no, this garbage seems to be a Nouvelle Vague material, Jean Luc Godard like crap, especially speaking of the writing, the story, so silly. The directing is not so bad though and the main interest is for sure the couple Serge Gainsbourg - Jane Birkin.

Serge Gainsbourg with a machine gun and a chicken coup

Cannabis or 'French Intrigue' as it was called on the North American video release is a low budget film with not much to see in it besides a naked Jane Birkin getting it on. Serge Gainsbourg Smoking one cigarette after another plays a unshaven, hoodlum involved with a international drug smuggling conspiracy. Jane Birkin is a girl Serge meets on a air-plane, and nudity ensue, not Gainsbourg though which is a scary proposition seeing him in that Lemon incest video. Another memorable scene is Serge in a huge Chicken coupe shooting it out with other baddies. Soundtrack is by Gainsbourg and is very cool as with everything the man did.

Stunning visuals wasted on a story we've seen too often

This movie had a lot of potential: a great cast including Curd Juergens, Serge Gainsbourg and Jane Birkin, and outstanding qualities in cinematography and editing. I have seen few films with so many intense close-ups and surprising cuts. Unfortunately, the movie has no story to tell. It is just another gangster movie with everybody being everybody else's enemy. "Cannabis" could have become a weird, more outrageous, experimental and revolutionary version of Melville's "Le Samourai", but the movie ends up as a failure, albeit a visually stunning one.

Incoherent dud

The title "French Intrigue" is only half right; the film does take place mostly in France, but it is very un-intriguing. According to IMDb, this was Pierre Koralnik's second directorial effort; I don't know if he improved later on, but at this point he absolutely could not direct: the film is very poorly put together, with an almost complete lack of basic transition shots. The script is incoherent and uninteresting. Serge Gainsbourg is supposed to be on a drug-busting mission, but he looks as if he was on drugs himself when this was made! Occasional nudity by Jane Birkin is the film's only redeeming virtue, but I'd still suggest that you avoid "French Intrigue" at all costs. * out of 4.

Serge should have stick with music.

They made a lots of crime movies like this in the 60's. The script (if there is any) hasn't given much thought and is full of holes. The characters are empty and stupid, there are always drugs involved and at least one party scene full of grass smoking messed up hippies. Jane Birkin and Serge Gainsbourg spend most of the time kissing and touching each other while the other "gangster" is just fooling around. From time to time, police is trying to catch them with zero results. Acting is bad and the dialog is ridiculous. However, there are still some nice shots in it and the soundtrack (composed by Gainsbourg) is fantastic and that is a reason enough to check out this piece of crap.
