Un Flic

The French Crime Classic From The True Master Of The Genre


Coleman (Alain Delon) is a burned-out detective who has seen too much pain. His friend Simon (Richard Crenna) is a brilliant thief who fears no law. Between them is the beautiful woman (Catherine Deneuve) they both love. But when Simon plans the ultimate heist of a train full of mob money, the two men find themselves hurtling towards a final showdown of fate, friendship and betrayal.



From the stunning opening bank robbery sequence through its powerful performances, Un Flic is the work of a true master. Known in the U.S. as Dirty Money, this is the final film by the legendary Jean-Pierre Melville (Le Samourai, Bob Le Flambeur), renowned as the creator of the modern gangster movie and credited as a major influence on such directors as John Woo and Quentin Tarantino.
