Le Doulos
Based on Pierre Lesou's excellent Série Noire novel, Le Doulos is a study in loyalty, betrayal and ambiguity (a 'doulos' is both a hat and an informer), boasting one of the most daring narrative twists in the history of cinema, Nicolas Hayer's superb noir photography and a jazz score by Paul Misraki and Jacques Loussier.
