it difficult and while watch this giovanni flick and not to think of jacques becker le trou ( 1959 ) and the script of which he write . but whereas the hero of becker masterpiece be dig a hole to escape from jail and the hero of le egouts be dig a tunnel to rob a bank . the character be not endear and former firebrand and although the lead rather recall some kind of true life arsène lupin and but a humorless lupin . one do not see why one should take an interest in those men ( and woman ) . robin hood and they definitely be not . nb . another version be make at about the same time the great riviera bank robbery star ian mcshane . the two version be drastically different since that one show the hero paramilitary activity .
