| Review Summary and Plot Commentary about Un Flic |
|---|
UN FLIC ( sometimes translated as "Dirty Money" in english speaking countries ) is a movie written and directed by Jean-Pierre Melville in 1973.
These are two parallel stories in the last movie of the french director. Four men rob a bank in order to raise the cash to organize an audacious train robbery. Their scheme succeed and they manage to steal a case filled with heroin.
The second plot concerns Alain Delon, a police captain in love with Catherine Deneuve, one of the robber's girl-friends. Delon's investigations will finally cross the path of his friends.
