Description of this The Tall Blond Man with One Black Shoe Movie Poster
“The Tall Blond Man with One Black Shoe is a 1972 French spy film. It is the first film to feature François Perrin, a down-on-his-luck simpleton who constantly finds himself in dangerous and comical situations, but who eventually gets out of them.
In the bowels of French counter-espionage, a plot is hatched against Colonel Toulouse by his deputy, Bernard Milan, to take his place. On Milan’s orders, the agent delivers heroin to the United States, allows himself to be arrested and interrogated with a lie detector, revealing that the heroin was delivered to the United States on the instructions of French counter-espionage. The scandal is so resounding that Louis Toulouse is forced to urgently return from his leave to check what is going on. passes.
Milan’s interrogation is useless – he initially rejects the possibility of such actions on his part, and regarding the photo in which he is depicted with his agent, he says it is a photomontage. Subsequently, Colonel Toulouse, who accidentally discovered “snitches” in his house, invites his assistant Perrasch to his home and arranges to meet him the next day at 9:30 a.m. at Orly Airport with a super special agent who will help them deal with Milan.
However, no agent actually exists – it is a “fool’s trap”: Perrash is tasked with choosing any man from the crowd, whom the inhabitants of Milan, who follow Perrash, mistake for a superagent. His choice falls on a humble violinist, François Perrin, returning from a concert in Munich. The distracted violinist attracts his attention by wearing different shoes. Perrasch greets him first, then, as if mistaken, apologizes and leaves. Milan’s men (the demonstration was intended for them), observing the meeting from afar, interpret the contact as a transmission of instructions to a “super-agent” and begin spying on Perrin. They secretly equip his house with listening devices, waiting for him to make contact with Toulouse. While observing Perrin, they discover numerous “oddities” (different shoes, refusal to go to the dentist, strange behavior, flushing the toilet) and become increasingly convinced that François is a genuine super-agent with an excellent cover (a modest life without much action) and that he has even been to the United States.
With the help of a beautiful employee, Christine (instructed that Perrin is a “super agent”), Milan’s agents lure him into the house, where they monitor them with cameras video. But not only can Christine learn nothing from him (since there is nothing to learn), but she falls in love with him. Perrin, unknowingly, circumvents all the dangerous traps set by Milan—with the help of Toulouse’s men secretly assigned to protect him, whom he also fails to notice. Cutting short all of Milan’s attempts to understand what is going on, Toulouse nevertheless senses that Milan may be mistaken (that François is probably not an agent, as Christine said), so Toulouse again deliberately speaks out loud that “the violinist has done the work” and that he will “report back” to us that very day.
Realizing that things are heading for a denouement, Toulouse orders the withdrawal of Blondin’s guards, but his assistant Perrasch, who seriously fears for Blondin’s life, reinforces François’ guards. It all ends with a shootout in Perrin’s apartment, which results in the deaths not only of Toulouse’s and Milan’s men, but also of Milan himself in Blondin’s place. Perrin’s friend, Maurice Lefebvre, who happened to witness the murders, has a mental breakdown, and Perrin flies to Rio de Janeiro instead of Munich, taking Christine with him. Toulouse, who is watching Blondin onscreen, tells Perrush that Blondin should be contacted when he returns from Rio, because “this guy is doing very well.”
The film ends with a quote from the French Penal Code: “Everyone has the right to respect for their private life.”
