An average crime motion picture
1 Jan 2005
Format:DVD
An armored car holdup goes bad, and the Lee Marvin character is on the run. He ends up hiding on the farm of a dysfunctional family. Everyone wants the bag of money he grabbed during the holdup. The plot seems to be more about the family than about the robbery. The motion picture has sex (there are scenes in a bordello, including bondage and discipline; bedroom scenes; one scene in the kitchen); significant nudity ranging from female nudest campers to a boy getting his butt whipped; and a large amount of violence. I would personally give it an R rating or, in the other rating system, AO for adult only. I am looking at the uncut French version. You will obviously not see this on TV, at least not in the United States.
I would agree with a previous reviewer that the sound quality is bad. Perhaps that is the result of a poor job dubbing in English for a French film. It was necessary to strain to hear some of the dialogue, which made it difficult at times to follow the story. It is an obviously older Lee Marvin in the motion picture, and it is not one of his better acting assignments.
It is hard to say who actually ends up with the money. Many characters end up dead, and some murders are conveniently blamed on the robber.

Yes I am selling it but...
15 Aug 2004
Format:DVD
this is a solid period movie. fair warning it is full of sexual content that I couldn't believe was in a movie from this time. It was obviously dubbed from french but what I cannot figure out is that lee marvin is actually speaking english while all the characters speak french. Overall a solid film with lots of twists.
