This is a crime story based on one of Georges Simenon's novels. It is as French as it can be.

The movie is made as a series of flashbacks between a bedroom episodes (blue bedroom as you can guess) and interrogation scenes. It is like a puzzle, details are coming slow, piece by piece, and you are getting the whole picture. Or not.

Attention to detail is amazing.

There were few things that bothered me though: a drop of blood looked too unreal, the protagonist was permanently dazzled.

The movie is left intentionally open-ended, leaving plenty of room to discuss possible perpetrators of the crime. Which is probably not bad but I left a theater somewhat disappointed.
