Inhalt:
Early in Le Deuxième Souffle, police investigator Blot (Paul Meurisse) preemptively details the various phony-baloney stories some criminals involved in a shootout plan to tell, though the crooks' threadbare tall tales still prove successful at keeping them out of the slammer. Jean-Pierre Melville's 1966 film functions in a similar fashion, its story a compendium of well-known, somewhat tired characters, situations and tropes that the director nonetheless utilizes effectively, and thrillingly. In its most basic outline, the plot concerns Gu (Lino Ventura), a thief who breaks out of prison and both commits murder to protect his devoted sister Manouche (Christine Fabréga) and partakes in an armored car robbery for 200 million francs. As with most of the French auteur's noirs, however, the ensuing action defies easy summarization, so unstable and evolving are all of its underworld figures' allegiances to each other. (Covertext)
