36 Quai des Orfèvres (also known as 36th Precinct and Department 36)

Review by Ian Jane

posted June 14, 2011


Olivier Marchal's 2004 film The 36th Precinct (or, as it was released in France, 36 Quai Des Orfevres, or as it was released in the UK simply 36) follows two French police officers, Leo Vrinks (Daniel Auteuil) and Denis Klein (Gerard Depardieu) as they set out to stop a group of ruthless thieves who have been preying on the people of Paris for some time now. The cops, lead by commanding officer Robert Mancini (Andre Dussollier), have been powerless to stop them as they are continually outsmarted at pretty much every turn. Mancini tells his men that whoever can bring the hoods in will get his job - and so Vrinks and Klein soon find themselves in the running for the top spot on the force.



Though Vrinks and Klein have been friends a long time, tensions mount between the two men as they set out to catch the crooks. This affects their personal lives, with Vrinks' relationship with his loving wife,Camille (Valeria Golino), and their young daughter feeling the stress. Klein, on the other hand, has a tendency to fall inside a bottle when things get tough, and they're rarely tougher than they are right now - but he's got his eye on the prize and will do whatever he needs to do in order to land himself Mancini's position.



When a criminal named Hugo Silien (Roschdy Zem) is let out of prison and phones Vrinks with some information, he agrees to meet him in a fancy suburb but soon finds that he's been set up. He does, however, get the information he wants which puts him closer to the thieves than Klein, he falls further into a bad place and winds up in some serious trouble of his own.



Loosely based on an all too real string of daring robberies that took place in France in the early 1980s, The 36th Precinct is clever, slick and uncompromisingly tough. Not just gritty for the sake of gritty, this film really does a great job of putting us in the moment, letting us get to know the central characters enough that we're interested in them but at the same time keeping us intrigued by some clever plot development and exciting action sequences. It's also interesting how Marchal's film puts two established icons of French cinema - Daniel Auteuil and Gerard Depardieu - in roles that less confident actors might pass on. The men they play are very human, prone to making plenty of mistakes and this is made painfully clear as the movie progresses. These are not tough as nails invincible supercops, rather, these are flawed individuals who don't always make the right decision or do the right thing. Both actors are excellent in their parts, and their nihilistic characters are played very believably.



A rather cold looking film from a visual standpoint, The 36th Precinct will no doubt remind some viewers of Mann's Heat, and those comparisons aren't completely unwarranted as the two films do share some themes and ideas, but Marchal's film benefits from its uniquely Parisian setting and a leaner, more efficient running time. Grim, both thematically and stylistically, the film moves at a good pace and it works in enough subtle political allegory and subterfuge to make it well worth the watch.
