Who wouldn't tell from the first minute of the film that Michael Lonsdale is the bad guy after all? Nonetheless, this one's quite entertaining. If you like these small, lesser known French crime stories from the 70s, filled up with obscurities, it is definitely your cup of tea. Marlene Jobert is great, so is little Thomas Waintrop, and if you don't mind that the plot has some unbelievable elements in it, you will enjoy the experience. The music, by the way, is entirely taken from Verdis opera "La Forza del Destino" (adapted here by French film music maestro Philippe Sarde), and that title should give you a hint for the on goings. Not least to be watched for it's reference to "Alice in Wonderland"!
