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.
