When his orders to kill an African president change at the last minute, French secret agent Josselin Beaumont (Jean-Paul Belmondo, Breathless, Mississippi Mermaid) isn’t recalled but betrayed by his superiors, who denounce him to the enemy as an assassin. After two arduous years in a foreign jail, Joss escapes back to his homeland with vengeance on his mind, determined to carry out his original mission. He lets his former bosses know of his plans, using his spying skills to taunt them and to evade the brutal Commissioner Rosen (Robert Hossein, The Wicked Go to Hell). This French classic marked a high point in Belmondo's action career, his spectacular stunts and brawny charm underlined by Ennio Morricone’s iconic theme ‘Chi mai’.
This edition from Radiance Films also comes with tons of special features.
