    Mystery Whats the movie?

    I was trying to find on Ebay a couple of French films at the weekend and I thought I knew the name of them - Le(s) Flic and Le(s) Flic 2.

    But I have obviously got the name wrong as I cant find them on Ebay, Amazon or IMDB.

    Basically they are cop films - I was sure that Flic is slang for Cop. But as I say I cant find them. The plot of the first is old cop with dodgy morals but with good heart paired with new whiter than white cop who wont even take a free cup of coffee. It ends I think with the old cop being sent to prison. I havent a clue who the actors are though.

    Anyone remember the film/s I am thinking of ?

    There's a french film called 'Un Flic' - 1972' with Alain Delon?

    There was a film called 36 Quai des Orfèvres in 2004 that I think had a plot similar to that. It starred Daniel Auteuil and Gérard Depardieu who are two of France's most recognizable actors. Good movie actually. Here's the trailer, see if it looks familiar:

    There's also Les Rivières pourpres (Crimson Rivers) which had Vincent Cassel and Jean Reno in it. They're France's other two most recognizable actors. They starred as two coppers with contrasting styles investigating some serial murderer stuff. There was a Rivières pourpres II too. I've never seen that though. Here's the trailer for that bad boy:

    Bon Cop, Bad Cop?

    Just kidding.

    There is a movie with Alain Delon called Un Flic, but the plot does not sound the same.

    Was this a comedy or a crime drama?

    Robin - yup seen 36. Not a bad movie but didnt deliver on the hype though.

    buddahas - it was more a crime drama and it was I think mid 80s. Might be wrong but I think the older guy has a long term relationship with a madam/older working girl and likes to bet on the horses
