Jean-Paul Belmondo, who was much younger, was a product of the recent New Wave, which Mr. Gabin was a superstar in his native country, having done excellent work throughout his career. They came from different styles of acting. The pairing of Jean Gabin and Jean-Paul Belmondo was a gamble for the creators of the film. The screenplay is credited to Francois Bover and Michel Audiard, the father of director Jacques Audiard, in an adaptation of Antoine Blondin. The film was directed by Henri Verneuil, an old timer in that country's cinema, closely associated with Jean Gabin, having worked with him in a number of pictures together. Never having seen the film, we had a chance when it showed on a French channel. They see in one another good nature as well as a friendship that comes from mutual understanding. Eventually, Gabriel and Albert connect in surprising ways. Gabriel and he girl has been estranged by some unknown reason that is not well explained. His own daughter is studying at a local boarding school run by nuns.
