FLance, power, and women-as one has to imagine, produced “The Paris Police in 1900”, an evil eight-part crime production produced by a pay TV channel Canal Plus, It was clear from the first shot. On February 16, 1899, French President Olivier Pajot sat on the sofa to gossip about domestic tensions. A woman knelt in front of him, so that the personal tension of the head of state might be released. Then Foer broke up at the most exciting moment, which made him still laughed at by his compatriots.
However, more important than this death is Faure’s role in the so-called “Dreyfus Incident”, since Jewish military officer Alfred Dreyfus was convicted on suspicion of treason in 1894. Since then, this incident has shaken France-this is an anti-Semitism scandal.nuclear Roman Polanski Released in 2019. Felix Fall publicly opposed the reopening of the proceedings; he was also the recipient of an open letter from the writer Émile Zola in the left-wing newspaper “L’Aurore” in 1898: “Allegations…!”.
Therefore, the excitement of Faure’s death in the opening “Paris Police 1900” is also a political excitement: the president is angry that Dreyfus will now be brought to Paris from Devil’s Island to appeal. He is afraid of unrest, including revolution.
The troublemakers are by no means anarchists. They are being watched by the police: a newspaper boy selling “Auror” was beaten in broad daylight, and his father’s newsstand was set on fire to warn Dreyfus sympathizers. . A little pig named Dreyfus can be seen in the theater-stabbed in front of cheering audiences at an event of anti-Semitism instigator Jules Guérin (demon: Hubert Delattre). Series creator Fabien Nury was famous for comics such as “Once Upon a Time in France” and “The Death of Stalin”. His aesthetic point of view is reflected in a clearly rustic image in “The Paris Police in 1900”.
This also applies to the beginning of a criminal case. Capital police officers like the quiet police officer Antoine Laheurte, despite facial injuries, are somewhat pale and dealt with in this atmosphere: in the suitcase, the director Julien Despaux (“Profiling Paris”) unpacked in front of the camera, and a woman was lying with a naked torso. It may be the wife of a minister who is a loyal reader of Guérin’s draft paper “L’Antijuif”.
We don’t want to predict the plot further. The background of the recommended “Paris Police 1900” looks like a lifelike painting, a very dense and hard narrative, successfully dispelling any passionate memories of the Belle Époque.
In addition to the inexperienced inspector Jouin, the central staff also includes the elderly superintendent Puybaraud (Patrick d’Assumçao), his dedicated colleague Cochefert (Alexandre Trocki), the violence investigator Fiersi (Thibaut Evrard) and the passionate hunter Louis Lépine ( Stiff and robust: Mark Babe), he was ordered to return to the Seine as the new police chief and should control the smoldering riots in all necessary ways.
Two women are fighting against the surplus of men: the lawyer Eugénie Derouand, who tried to oppose the laughter of men as a lawyer, and the legendary Margaret “Meg” Steinhal (Evelyne Brochu) ), she is the best circle. On February 16, 1899, it was she who knelt in front of the irritable President Félix Faure and then tried to monetize the president’s explosive documents. We are dealing with a series that is very worth seeing, but it is not attractive in some places. Normally: As a concentrated mini-series, the “Paris Police 1900”, which has been described as the French echo of “Babylon Berlin”, could have done better.
