Maigret Sets a Trap

Maigret tend un piège

Inspector Maigret tries to trap a killer and discovers why a happily married, wealthy, and talented man should want to murder women at night. Jean Gabin is fantastic as Georges Simenon's secure and steady sleuth, and old-hand Jean Delannoy expertly keeps up the pace and suspense in this enjoyable whodunnit.

Nominated for Best Film from Any Source and Best Foreign Actor (Jean Gabin and Jean Desailly) at the BAFTA Awards.
