La Balance
La Balance was a legitimate French attempt to reclaim the international crime film genre that the Americans had defined and dominated since the 1930s. With Hollywood-level (and style) violence and American-born (though French-based) filmmaker Bob Swaim in the director's chair, and a first-rate cast in a good, straight-forward crime story, it pushed all the right buttons with audiences on both sides of the Atlantic in the mid-1980s--especially the incredibly suspenseful final quarter-hour.
Starring Nathalie Baye, Philippe Léotard, Richard Berry, Maurice Ronet, Bernard Freyd, Christophe Malavoy, Jean-Paul Comart, Albert Dray, Gérard Baume, Pierre-Marie Escourrou
It's a drama and thriller movie, and has a rating of 6.6 out of 10 from Imdb which is usually fine for this kind of movie.
