Bellamy
A film by Claude Chabrol
Starring: Gérard Depardieu, Marie Bunel, Clovis Cornillac and Jacques Gamblin
"Intriguing...Depardieu gives his most pleasing performance in some years."
Mike Goodridge, SCREEN DAILY
"A constant pleasure."
Tim Evans, SKY MOVIES
"Mr. Depardieu can still generate some movie-star wattage and pull off the larger-than-life presence of a leading man. He has done it so expertly in Bellamy."
Martin Tsai, CRITICS NOTEBOOK
"Intelligent and well-written."
Tim Evans, SKY MOVIES
"[An] upscale talkfest, which delights in its witty banter and sly references."
Boyd van Hoeij, VARIETY

Police chief Paul Bellamy (Gerard Depardieu) and his wife Françoise are vacationing in Nimes. Their quiet holiday is interrupted by the arrival of Paul's half-brother, Jacques, who has a propensity for drinking and deception. But family problems are put aside when Bellamy is contacted by Noël Gentil, a man on the run who appears to be responsible for murder. Trusting his intuition, Bellamy embarks on a private investigation to help Gentil clear his name.
