9/10
I don’t know why this movie is so little-celebrated — it’s terrific. It’s so assured. It brings in the worn and smooth Jean Gabin for his last job (of course), and through some exchanges of witty banter gives us some time to get to know him and his wife before introducing his former cellmate, Alain Delon, as the leather-jacketed toughie. They’re both excellent here, especially Gabin, who’s polite but still certainly in control. He gives a wryness, like a fat Orson Welles, to his performance. The hot-tempered Delon gives a jolt of vitality to the picture. The entire movie is nice and slow, perfectly glamorous, the best of swinging, jazzy ’60s cool. In a conventional movie, when Delon is told to seduce a ballerina so he and Gabin can gain a backstage pass to the theater, the courting would have ended with him buying her a drink. But in this film, it lasts for a good half an hour. And it’s never boring. Those nice, long sequences explain everything fully. Not the plot, per se, but elements of the plot — Delon’s seducing of the dancer (which he mucks up more than once); Delon’s brother-in-law, who in a normal movie would have been nothing but a side character, here is fully-fleshed out; Gabin’s wife. And that long, languorous rhythm is what makes the major, lengthy set piece so memorable — it’s where Delon slinks around, slipping up occasionally, climbing up stairs, crawling through a ventilation shaft, and hiding in an elevator (very “Mission: Impossible”), eventually leading to the robbery. And it has one of the best endings to any caper movie that I’ve seen. 9/10

Verneuil delivers a classic 60’s heist movie
Verneuil is quite well-known for his crime / heist movies and delivers again a classic with ‘Mélodie en sous-sol’. Gabin is as solid as ever in his role as a tough heist master and Delon bring its youth and freshness to the movie, linking also the ‘old’ french movies (including Verneuil and Gabin) with the new generation. (For the anecdote, one year before, Verneuil has also associated Gabin this time with Belmondo, the actor most associated with the New wave movement.)

We definitely have an old time vs current time theme in the movie, illustrated by its first parts. We discover the new Sarcelles with Gabin. The criticism is not formulated by words but is obvious – the more when you know what these dormitory-towns will become. Thus, we follow Delon in his carefree life and I can only smile at the “good old time” referral and the irony behind it. Irony deliberate, already at that time. Irony even better now, that this current time shown in the movie has become a referred “good old time” of our period.

Not to forget Audiard dialogs and punchlines, that brings you smile each time you hear his so characteristic style.
