MISSISSIPPI MERMAID

Tobacco planter Louis Mahé (Jean-Paul Belmondo) was expectedly pleased when his attractive mail-order bride (Catherine Deneuve) put in at his Indian Ocean isle. He was much less so the morning she ran off with most of his cash. Learning of her real identity as a scam artist, he tracks her to a confrontation in France, but is her spell over him broken? François Truffaut's stylish suspenser co-stars Nelly Borgeaud, Michel Bouquet. 123 min.
