Chabrol is in great shape, leading this espionage parody where Serge Reggiani plays a Soviet secret agent, Charles Denner loses his British accent for a Parisian one, and Stephane Audran portrays lesbian femme fatales. This fun film is packed with false leads and misdirection, playing with the usual spy movie tropes for comedic effect. Reggiani adopts a Russian accent, Denner pretends to be an American, and Audran shines.
