Black List (1984)
the last french thriller from the eighties.
9 August 2008
Warning: Spoilers
This is the last french crime - gangster movie before a long time; the next one deserving to be told is "Nous irons au Paradis car l'Enfer est Ici" shot and released thirteen years later !!! 1997

This little yarn is interesting. The tale of a woman whom the son is killed by a group of professional robbers during an armored truck job. The thieves used a bunch of young thugs to create a diversion during the heist. And among the youngsters was Girardot'son.

And of course, she is torn to pieces by her son's death and decides to find the killers and ten wastes them one by one. Some may find this totally unbelievable but I appreciated this little film. Girardot is outstanding, her character heartgriping.

An excellent time waster.
