Inspector Bellamy

Legendary French writer and director Claude Chabrol delivered his swan song with this character study that united him for the first time with another legend, Gérard Depardieu. A Parisian inspector finds himself entangled on a new case while on vacation with his wife. As usual with Chabrol, the crime is in the background for his characters whose interaction push them to reveal universal traits. Depardieu stars with another solid performance along with Marie Bunel, Clovis Cornillac and Jacques Gamblin. 1001 Films' coverage of films on DVD.
