8/10
Good except the end!

Special film like anything signed Henri Verneuil! Any film directed by him is an event, he was and remains one of the greatest French directors (actually, he was Armenian, born in Turkey). The best role I've seen Henri Vidal. The best role I saw Mylène Demongeot, in the role of a young woman greedy for money. She looks very sexy only in a swimsuit, when she shows her breasts in the water. Isa Miranda is also very good in the role of a woman who is desperately looking for love, willing to pay anything (in the end she pays with her own life). Henri Verneuil was and remains a great filmmaker, check all his films, especially "The Sicilian Clan" (1969)Le clan des Siciliens(original title), "The 25th Hour" (1967)La vingt-cinquième heure (original title), "The Night Caller" (1975)Peur sur la ville (original title), "The Burglars" (1971)Le casse (original title), "The Serpent" (1973)Le serpent (original title), all masterpieces, starring the greatest actors of all time. This "A Kiss for a Killer" (1957)Une manche et la belle (original title) is one of his first feature films, made after a novel by the famous thriller novelist James Hadley Chase, the pseudonym of René Lodge Brabazon Raymond.
