This is one of my favorite films. After all these years, it holds up beautifully. It's surreal, funny, tragic, strange, and somehow all holds together.
Noiret is wonderful, and a great foil for Huppert, with his hang-dog looks and understated acting. Although he plays a policeman, Noiret's character makes his own decisions about justice without the need for pesky government interference.
Isabelle Huppert and Stephane Audran are also perfect in their roles.
The cinematography is superb, with beautiful shots of Africa.
It's hard to categorize this movie, but Coup de Torchon is a must see! I think I've seen it 4 times.
