The director tackles his B-movie yarn with plenty of lyricism, throwing in a poetic voiceover and evocative shots of Montmartre.

Rating: 4/4 --
At once a charming entertainment, a resonant character study, an ironic morality tale, and a bittersweet celebration of Montmartre.

Melville's actually more interested in his central character's gentlemanly heroics and fractured obsession with risking everything at the roulette table.

Its realism is not the reality of life, but of the kind of movies that give shape to the disordered lives of the people who watch movies.
