Guitry caustically lavishes occasional or permanent nonsense like few others? of life and the mediocre role of justice, but above all, the shameless stereotypes that prevent seeing kindness and honesty in a thief for robbing a house and the opposite of an idle millionaire. Rarely can we have a cocnag with the thief who will kill us! And there are even fewer times that we are the ones who have proposed it to him 5 minutes before committing suicide and, therefore, as unheard of as it may sound, let us be accomplices of our own perfect murder counting on the spontaneity of luck and the impudence of our indifference, since we do not even know the fortuitous executioner (and relief) recently arrived for our plans. The unlikely encounter allows for two things, one, for the character of Philippe, the meticulous, if slightly cynical, review of how his infamous resume of lies made him go beyond comedy to the border of farce in his real life; two, to the viewer, to discover the twisted but strangely honest sense of why Philippe d'Artois the suicide finds it delicious that fate takes the initiative in key moments of his life, from a long time ago and, paradoxically when, as he tells the thief, He began his crisis of conscience on that Deauville beach rescuing the beautiful Madeleine, not to mention his subsequent frantic search -although not in an obvious way- through all the 5, 4 and 3 star hotels until he reunited with Jean, his friend from the childhood; Metacognitive farce, a thief who avoids complacency in his crime, a suicide who haggles over the 400,000 that he will pay him for killing him and accepts 200,000 francs and not 300,000 in cash because it is too dangerous to have so much cash at home. Perfectly well-orchestrated entanglement by Guitry because while the two lovers, Madeleine and Philippe, have fun inventing new scenarios to continue cheating on the husband, Jean (coffees, changes of taxis and train cars for a couple of hours) all the fuss will culminate, Philippe continues telling the thief who will kill him, when they are discovered that night in which Jean and Madeleine's residence on the 16th District was robbed. Philippe, already discovered by the cuckolded Jean and fleeing through the curtains, shoots Jean dead and cunningly leaves the pistol to the unknown thief who had just begun to ransack the home in another part of the enormous residence. Thanks to his stormy but ridiculous escape he crashes into a tree and in the hospital he meets Princess Gorochenko, a kleptomaniac who takes the salt shaker and cutlery, the old couple who mutually believe that the other is the one who is crazy, and the chaplain who makes funny faces and grimaces at Philippe from the opposite table and thinks Philippe is crazy. Who will be that thief if not Albert Le Cagneux, who after having paid 10 years for something he did not commit, murder, will be innocent again?
