story

Mélodie en Sous-Sol
Jean Gabin plays Charles, an aging gangster, newly released from prison.
In fine Bogart tradition, the unrepentant Charles immediately sets to work planning a major casino heist in Cannes.
His go-between for this endeavor is a chorus girl, whom Charles's associate Francis (Alain Delon) beds in order to win her confidence.
This rapidly-paced suspenser was based on a novel by John Trinian.
When first distributed in the US, the film travelled under the title Any Number Can Win.

Cast:
Jean Gabin, Alain Delon, Claude Cerval, Viviane Romance, Henri Virlojeux, Jean Carmet

Director:
Henri Verneuil


Un Singe En Hiver
Latent forces for a strong individualism are pitted against the need to honor deeply held commitments in this effective comedy by Henri Verneuil.
Jean Gabin and Jean-Paul Belmondo star as Albert and Gabriel, respectively.
Albert is an inn owner who vowed never to drink again if he and his wife survived the war.
They did, and the reformed alcoholic keeps his vow.
But times have changed and soon after the war, Albert comes in contact with Gabriel, a young man prone to heavy bouts with the bottle.
Gabriel is conflicted over visiting his young daughter in a nearby school and in a moment of nostalgia, Albert takes off with him on one major binge, and havoc results.

Cast:
Jean Gabin, Jean-Paul Belmondo, Suzanne Flon, Gabrielle Dorziat, Hella Petri, Marcelle Arnold

Director:
Henri Verneuil
