Political thriller evoking an ultra right wing party, very rare at this period, it is a rather effective thriller showing once more Bernard Pierre Donnadieu as a villain, two years after RUE BARBARE, but here he is vs Richard Berry instead of Bernard Giraudeau. I will prefer this one because of the supporting cast, but the awful early eighties atmosphere still, as in RUE BARBARE, from the same Gilles Behat director, brings a touch that I have never been used to. I hate this period; I prefered the seventies. The music score, way of story telling and camera work, acting, neo punk soul and spirit, have always annoyed me so much...But it is bearable, never boring. But it is unfortunately very predictable, in the Hollywood manner. I watched it forty years ago and that's the first time I see it again.
