The perfect crime means a victim, the motive, pick up a guilty and leave it to a blind-complex judicial system!!!!

Reading the small synopsis appearing in the DVD it somehow is regarded by some European critics as French's WITNESS FOR THE PROSECUTION made by Billy Wilder previously in 1957, thus at once I've been thrilled about to come, the summarized plot is about a wealthy sick mid-age man Paul Dupre (Villalonga) married with a younger cold woman Catherine Dupré (Marina Vlady), suddenly one night a beauty nurse Gina Bianchi (Virna Lisi) when applying the injection Mr. Dupré going to die, after reaches his doctor soon realizes that the ampoules were wrongly switch.Then at once Mrs. Catherine claims that Gina kills willfully his husband, also argues that both having a secret affair, one next morning the shacky Gina has an unsuccessful attempt of sui.cide in a car accident, inquire by a clever instruction Judge Albert Gaudet (Borvil) in rare serious role, he awares that the late Mr. Dupré changed his will three days before his death, leaving all his properties and money to Gina, Mrs. Dupré contracts her lover a famous crook lawyer Charles Cassidi (Pierre Brasseur) as defense attorney, all elements strongly suggest that Gina is really guilty, however the wise director already exposes that his diabolical wife framed her prospective contender, in a nutshell Gina is doomed to jail.Then the audience eagerly expects for a final twist thru the outstanding Judge Albert Gaudet that has an ace at his sleeve to overthrown the perfect crime, nonetheless the savvy Lawyer will be everything to condemn the innocent girl, this picture is quite opposite with his supposed forerunner, somewhat it stays a bitter taste at our mouth that already expecting a better outcome.Thanks for reading.Resume:First watch: 2024 / How many: 1 / Source: DVD / Rating: 8.5.

A treat

I must say I really enjoyed this movie, in many ways. I'll have to include several spoilers to explain how.

First, the story is engaging. Although we know "who did it" almost from the beginning, it makes it even more interesting to follow the investigation.

Even more I enjoyed the actors and their characters. Marina Vlady's is extremely repulsive, but she carries it in such way that you keep wondering: could you resist her charms yourself? Virna Lisi shows another kind of beauty, fragile but just as irresistible. Bourvil's character is actually two persons: until the last half hour he is a Columbo-type investigator, full of self-confidence, playing with the criminal; then he breaks down as he realizes that he is powerless to resolve the case. And Pierre Brasseur is so annoying as the lawyer, omnipotent when in charge of the case, but a toy in his lover's hands.

The ending I like the best, not leaving us with any illusion about the possibility of reaching the justice. Even if the court changes the decision, it will be just a consequence of the lawyer's moves in his immoral game...
