Synopsis:

An ageing gangster, Fernand Naudin is hoping for a quiet retirement when he suddenly inherits a fortune from an old friend, a former gangster supremo known as the Mexican. If he is ambivalent about his new found wealth, Fernand is positively nonplussed to discover that he has also inherited his benefactor's daughter, Patricia. Unfortunately, not only does Fernand have to put up with the thouroughly modern Patricia and her nauseating boyfriend, but he also had to contend with the Mexican's trigger-happy former employees, who are determined to make a claim...

Ex-gangster Fernand (Lino Ventura) receives a call from a dying friend, a mob boss nicknamed 'The Mexican'. The doomed mobster talks Fernand into taking care of some criminal business and looking after his soon-to-be-married daughter. When a longtime mobster heavy, Volfoni takes exception to Fernand for being an outsider, they come after Fernand who is equal to the task. He defends himself in a series of comical killings from the onslaught of the mob.

A classic French comedy about old men turning to crime.
