A Bullet in the Gun Barrel (French: Une balle dans le canon) is a 1958 French crime film directed by Michel Deville and Charles Gérard.[1]
Two young paratroopers returning from Indochina, Tony and Dick, invest the 25 million entrusted to them by a man known as "the Maltese" in a Pigalle club called the Tip Tap, but he reappears and demands his money. Forced to sell, the two young men are double-crossed by Pépère, the former owner of the club, who is killed along with Dick while Tony is arrested for a murder he did not commit.
