Stodgy crime film, worth seeing almost exclusively for Jean Gabin's presence. Maigret is a master at playing cat-and-mouse with the people he is interrogating - however sometimes he plays word games with them for so long that by the time the mouse is caught in the trap, the cheese is already moldy. One fun burst of fighting comes very late into the film. **1/2 out of 4.
