According my files I did watch Inspector Maigret in 1995, however with Richard Harris, a British production of 1988, the French I never hear before, this month came out a Box-Set of three Jean Gabin's Maigret, the picture surprise me deeply, I was expecting something alike Poirot concept, nevertheless is quite unequal, Maigret is more human, fallible, he was in trouble after a serial killer has been stabbed four women on same pattern at Paris low district, under pressure by superior authorities Maigret undertakes a high stakes, he decides assemble a bolded plan, firstly he offers a phony suspect, also scattered several women as bait on the district, a task force is formed to cover all narrow streets, the killer fall into a trap, however got escape unscathed, meanwhile the set-up had a clue, starting this point Maigret has something at sight, fabulous picture with a proper casting as Annie Giradot, Jean Desaily and the incredible Lino Ventura on small role, Maigret imposes a grueling psychological game to get a confession of the alleged killer on stifling atmosphere, he follows his instincts, a great photography on dark neighhood of old Paris!!
