Un Flic

A Paris police chief (Alain Delon) discovers that his nightclub owner friend (Richard Crenna, First Blood) also leads a group of bank robbers. When he’s tipped off that the same robbers are planning a drug heist, the police chief races to defeat his two-faced friend. Meanwhile, the police chief has engaged in some double-crossing himself—by sharing the same woman (Catherine Deneuve) with the man he calls his friend.

Melville’s final work features iconic minimalist performances from the star trio and two trademark heists.
