It's not a drama, neither a crime movie. Just the story of a budding young executive - Magimel, ambitious and somewhere ruthless, who realizes that he made some mistakes: stealing the formula of a famous industrial product from a poor chemist. In the meanwhile, he meets by chance an old friend of his - Demaison, and talks to him about his guiltiness feelings. Demaison advises his pal to go to the chemist and tell him everything, to get rid of this culpability.
That's when all falls down, for the two leads. Because the chemist decides to blackmail Magimel...
I won't spoil the feature any further...
But there is something here that reminds me Dominique Moll's HARRY, UN AMI QUI VOUS VEUT DU BIEN. Demaison in Sergi Lopez character. Any one will have realized that Hitchcock influenced very much this movie, as many many others...
I won't see it again, not enough dark or desperate. But it is worthwhile as a good time waster. Good suspense from the beginning to the end.
