The Man in the Buick (1968)

Directed by Gilles Grangier

Overview

Mr Jo, nicknamed “the man with the Buick”, is the darling of the small town of Honfleur. But he is in fact a trafficker with a bad reputation who would like to forget about his past, now limiting himself to smuggling rubies under the cover of a charitable organization which offers underprivileged children holidays in Switzerland. However, Mr. Jo is in love with a pretty widow and, in order to marry her, he is willing to get involved in a hold-up again. And “the man with the Buick”, who seemed so honorable, will surprise the inhabitants of Honfleur when Inspector Menard reveals his secret activities.
