Maigret

The legendary Gérard Depardieu brings to remarkable life one of the most beloved characters from 20th-century crime fiction in MAIGRET, the exquisite, masterfully-directed new crime drama from multi-award-winning writer/director Patrice Leconte (The Girl On The Bridge), based on Georges Simenon's best-selling novels. In Paris, a woman is found dead in a square, dressed in an evening gown. Chief Inspector Maigret attempts to identify her and then investigates what happened to the victim.

Critic Reviews:

• " This is the kind of film that knows what it wants and how it wants it, giving the viewer exactly what they need to appreciate it. " – Emilie Black (Cinema Crazed)

• " The star himself commands an uncharacteristic stillness, dialling down his famous charisma, surrendering himself to the material. " – Jennie Kermode (Eye for Film)

• " Depardieu is a formidable presence, implacable, calm and resolute. " – David Stratton (The Australian)
