lone wolf

Originally I just wanted to give 3 stars, but Alain Delon didn't have any expression on his face. The film went very slowly. So much ink was spent in the police station, but there were not too many elements to promote the plot. It was really good. List. Very simple plot, the killer was hired to kill, but was silenced by the employer. Then find the employer, kill the employer. That's all. But when I saw the back, I suddenly felt that the whole film was made like this deliberately by the director. The cold metallic tone, the silent killer, and the bird that kept calling in the cage created a cold environment. There is a feeling of Gu Long's novel, freehand not writing.

The police in the play are more like a trick used to contrast the killer. It seems that they have designed one trap after another, and they have been cracked by Delong one by one. In the end, in the club, the police finally shot the killer, thinking they had the victory, but the killer didn't have any bullets in his pistol, he just came from the net.

Why would you sacrifice your life to do such a thing. Maybe that's the killer's rule, change into a car, get a new pistol, and put on white gloves before doing business. When the money is received, the work must be done. The task received must be completed. However, after receiving the favor of the pianist at the police station, he will never do anything he feels ashamed of. Therefore, the last gun without loaded bullets is the best choice.

Le Samouraï quotes

  • Superintendant: Don't you love him?

    Jane Lagrange: No.

    Superintendant: Really? I'd have said you did. Laying yourself on the line for him like that, I thought you must love him.

    Jane Lagrange: You're not the psychologist you imagined.

  • Superintendant: It's strange. Girls like you are virtually prostitutes. Ever give it any thought?

    Jane Lagrange: [sitting on her bed in a nightgown while her apartment is being searched by the police] No.

    Superintendant: You should. It could blow up in your face. If the vice squad starts in after you - those boys mean business. You need to be covered. No pun intended.

    Jane Lagrange: And you want to cover me?
