Cat Out of the Bag Alert! This review contains some spoilers for this film!

Synopsis: François Capella (Jean-Paul Belmondo) and Roch Siffredi (Alain Delon) are two small time hoods in 1930’s Marseille who decide to team up to take down the big gangsters.

Cat Cattle Call (with Kitty Carnage Warning!): Early on, François and Roch are charged with disrupting a fish market to put it out of business. At the end of the raucous scene, a man unloads a crate from a truck and lets the lid fall open, spilling numerous cats into the street which then run towards the market. In reality the cats look very upset at the circumstances.
