Plot:	Charlie, a piano player in a bar, is put in a jam when his brother Chico, a crook, takes refuge in the bar to hide from gangsters. We soon discover that Charlie was once a virtuoso who gave up after his wife's suicide...
Overview:	Charlie Kohler is a piano player in a bar. The waitress Lena is in love with him. One of Charlie's brothers, Chico, a crook, takes refuge in the bar because he is chased by two gangsters. We will discover that Charlie's real name is Edouard Saroyan, once a virtuoso who gives up after his wife's suicide. Now Charlie has to deal with Chico, Ernest, Momo, Fido (his youngest brother who lives with him), and Lena... Truffaut's second feature film is a French take on the American crime melodrama from the novel "Down There" by David Goodis, which raises a number of questions about responsibility, relationships and destiny. He embellishes the film noir cliches with an energetic cinematic style, beautifully filmed by Godard's favourite cinematographer, Raoul Coutard, in sumptuous wide screen.
