Summary

"Investigate brutal murder cases in 1950s Paris with legendary French detective Jules Maigret. Rowan Atkinson transforms himself into the calm, curious police commissioner who risks his life to find the culprits, and hopes some good will come of it. How to trap a serial killer stalking women in Montmartre? Who stabbed a gambler to death in the Place de la Concorde? Why release the obvious suspect for the murder of a diamond dealer? Who strangled a stripper one day and a duchess the next? Feel the tension build in four luxuriously produced feature-length film adaptations of Georges Simenon's novels"--Container
