"...what [Jean-François] Richet and [Vincent] Cassel achieve is a near-peerless
account of a man who became a myth in his own lifetime,
let alone nearly 30 years after his death."

About MESRINE: KILLER INSTINCT: Across Canada, the United States and Spain, through France and Algeria, MESRINE: KILLER INSTINCT tells the story of the incredible rise of one of history’s greatest gangsters. Always on the run, a renegade existence only a bullet can stop.
MESRINE: KILLER INSTINCT - the first of two parts - charts the outlaw odyssey of Jacques Mesrine (Vincent Cassel), the legendary French gangster of the 1960s and 1970s who came to be known as French Public Enemy No. 1 andThe Man of a Thousand Faces. Infamous for his bravado and outrageously daring prison escapes, Mesrine carried out numerous robberies, kidnappings and murders in a criminal career that spanned continents until he was shot dead in 1979 by France's notorious anti-gang unit. Thirty years after his death, his infamy lives on.
Mesrine was helped along the way by beautiful and equally reckless Jeanne Schneider (Cécile de France), a Bonnie to match his Clyde. Mesrine made up his own epic, between romanticism and cruelty, flamboyance and tragedy. Both a thriller and a biopic, Mesrine: Killer Instinct explores the man behind the icon.
Note: MESRINE: KILLER INSTINCT is the first of two parts. MESRINE: PUBLIC ENEMY NO. 1 is Part 2, and will open on Sept. 3. In MESRINE: PUBLIC ENEMY NO. 1 the story continues Mesrine's incredible life of crime while manipulating the media, the government and the police. He plans his last and greatest escape, hoping to leave France, and the character he has become, behind forever.
