Cassos

The movie is a flashback :when it begins ,the hero has become a predator;before his lessons in stickup ,he was a "Prédaté " (invented word for prey).

Marc is in the insurance business ;her wife is a pain in the neck ,she wears the pants,he's always told off;in the car,when he wants to play country music,the shrew turns off the radio:she likes Chopin best and she has a music teacher ;Agnes Soral,cast against type ,is a marvelously infuriating missus :too bad the part should be underwritten .

The miserable hubby wants to do away with her ,and he gets in touch with a mysterious "Monsieur Lotz" who sends Toulouse ,a hoodlum,to teach him the tricks of the trade .

Marc pretends he is a taxi driver and all through the night he will often end in an awkward position;the movie is divided into chapters : " 3000 euros from happiness" "like rabbits" ,etc ;sometimes it works: Marc mistaken for a gay, the fiancees he has trouble getting rid of,the "Tirer Un Coup" double-entendre ,an expression which means "to have a bang" but which can be taken literally,sometimes it is repetitive and dull (the interminable conversations with the "teacher ")

"Cassos " is a slang variation on "Casse-Toi" (= beat it)
