MISSISSIPPI MERMAID (LA SIRENE DU MISSISSIPPI) C widescreen 109m dir: Francois Truffaut

w/Jean-Paul Belmondo, Catherine Deneuve, Michel Bouquet, Nelly Borgeaud, Marcel Berbert

This mail-order bride mystery benefits greatly from the star power of Belmondo and Deneuve. It's one of Truffaut's stylish imitations of Alfred Hitchcock. Although it doesn't deliver Hitchcock's masterful suspense touches, it remains an interesting romantic thriller worth viewing.
