This is a region-free DVD+R without case or artwork.

In French with English subtitles. Widescreen. Also known as A Man for Killing.

Twenty-five years after seeing his brother killed in a Nazi concentration camp, Julius (Jean-Louis Trintignant) finally has the opportunity to avenge himself. His former torturer, Schmidt, has been tracked down by a ruthless death squad, who will execute him as soon as Julius has confirmed his identity. The suspected man, a seemingly respectable engineer, proves to be far more dangerous than Julius and his allies had expected...

Un Homme à Abattre is an unusual blend of conventional film noir and political thriller, cast with a chilling sense of cold war realism which sets it apart from most other thrillers of its time. The only diversion from the meticulously framed political drama, filmed in neo-documentary style, is an intriguing subplot involving Trintignant and Valérie Lagrange. Trintignant is, as ever, magnificent, as is the entire ensemble.
