Saw "Coup de Torchon" about 10 years ago and didn't get into it, but plan on revisiting it in a week or so. Saw "The Judge and the Assassin" last night and thought it was fantastic. It also starred Noiret and Huppert. Only thing disappointing was Huppert not being in many scenes.
I'm becoming a big Tavernier fan, but that usually happens with any French director once I begin to understand their work...
