BUY FROM AMAZON

Product Description: Screen legend Jean-Paul Belmondo (Le Doulos, The Hunter Will Get You) gives one of his slickest, slyest performances in the action-packed comedy-thriller, Cop or Hood (Flic ou voyou). When a small-town police chief is found dead in a prostitute’s house, a particularly handsome and quick-witted Paris commissioner named Stan Borowitz (Belmondo) is sent to investigate. Posing as the prostitute’s long-lost brother “Antonio Cerruti,” he discovers a mare’s nest of “ripoux” (French for “corrupt cops”). In fact, the whole town is downright dirty, right up to the mayor! Director Georges Lautner (Le Professionnel, Icy Breasts) teams with screenwriters Michel Audiard (The Body of My Enemy, Deadly Circuit) and Jean Herman (The Outsider, Dog Day) for one of Belmondo’s wittiest, wildest outings. Featuring the lovely Marie Laforêt (Purple Noon) and a jazzy score by Philippe Sarde (Barocco) with Chet Baker on trumpet.

BUY FROM AMAZON

Product Description: Jonas (Robert Walker, Beware! The Blob), a young drifter, stops at a desolate roadside service station where Mara (Rita Hayworth, Separate Tables), the owner, identifies him as her son Rocky, who disappeared four years ago. Jonas is overwhelmed by the awkward situation, but tired and hungry, accepts Mara’s offer of room and board. Initially, he believes that Mara is simply delusional, but when Mara’s old friend and neighbor Warren (Ed Begley, Billion Dollar Brain) arrives for a visit, surprisingly, he also acts as if Jonas were Rocky. Even when the attractive and carefree Billie (Mimsy Farmer, The Perfume of the Lady in Black), his alleged sister, comes home, she appears to recognize him as her brother and soon takes him under her wing. As an erotic relationship develops between them, Jonas soon discovers that Billie may have killed her own brother and Mara could very well be covering up the crime. Explosive events bring him to the edge of madness as he confronts the consequences of his “free ride.” The Road to Salina is a tense, gripping tale of forbidden love written and directed by Georges Lautner (Le Professionnel, Monsieur Gangster).
