Maigret à Pigalle

I really enjoy reading the Maigret series of books. Because of this, I am a bit biased and have to say that my opinion is a bit higher compared to the reviews I have read. Even after so many years since the film's release, the charm of Pigalle still holds a lot of attraction for me. That alone is enough for me. Jokes aside, I don't find Gino Cervi's interpretation of Maigret to be insufficient; I find him to be a completely believable Commissioner Maigret. The plot is a bit convoluted, but still easy to follow. In short, not the best Maigret, but not the worst either. I recommend this film to anyone looking for an old-fashioned detective story that, despite everything, makes for a pleasant couple of hours in the company of an old friend.
