Dirty Money (French: La Maudite Galette) is a Canadian drama film from Quebec, directed by Denys Arcand and released in 1972.[1] It was the first feature-length narrative film directed by Arcand.[2]
The film stars René Caron and Luce Guilbeault as Rolland and Berthe Soucy, a couple who are financially struggling. Rolland's wealthy uncle Arthur (Léo Gagnon) comes for a visit and offers them a gift of money to help out, but withdraws the offer after they quibble with the amount; after he leaves, Rolland and Berthe decide to go to his house and rob him. Unbeknownst to them, however, their reclusive tenant Ernest (Marcel Sabourin) follows them with a criminal plan of his own.
It was later screened at the 1984 Festival of Festivals as part of Front & Centre, a special retrospective program of artistically and culturally significant films from throughout the history of Canadian cinema.[3]
