| Summary |
With trademark hat and pipe, Albert Prǰean stars as the venerable Inspector Maigret in two first-rate Georges Simenon adaptations from the 1940s. PICPUS (1943): Whilst moving into her new Paris apartment, Madame Dumont discovers a dead body in her wardrobe. Soon more corpses pile up near the metro station Picpus and the eponymous street: a clairvoyant, a blind man, a doctor, a real estate agent. These people have certainly got something in common, but what can it be? Maigret is summoned to investigate in this thrilling whodunit from director Richard Pottier. In C¡CILE IS DEAD! (1944) Santa Relli plays a young woman named Cčile, who keeps coming to Quai des Orfvr̈es to see Inspector Maigret about disturbing events in her household. The esteemed detective and his colleagues are annoyed⁵until Cčile winds up dead. Maigret must crack the mystery in this stylish film noir from director Maurice Tourneur. |
