An odd crime film with Olympic ski champion Killy heading downhill on skis, with his acting talent (or lack thereof) sloping alongside him. Killy plays a ski instructor in the Alpine Mountains who teams with Gaubert and Potts to rob the bank at the mountain resort where he works. They successfully pull off the daring robbery, but insurance investigator De Sica discovers the three to be the thieving culprits and threatens them with arrest. They return the money to De Sica only to figure out that he was a fraud and that they have been tricked out of their ill-gotten gains. They break up the team, deciding to go their separate ways. The plot twists again when Killy catches a train with De Sica, his partner from the beginning. Though Killy cannot act, he can ski; famed Italian director De Sica, on the other hand, cannot ski, but his acting is the best in the film. leave a comment
