Ein Mann wie Taffin (1988)
Taffin ist ein liebenswerter Lebenskünstler, der seine Brötchen als Schuldeneintreiber für die ortsansässigen Geschäftsleute verdient. Seine Methoden sind nicht gerade "gentlemanlike", aber sehr wirkungsvoll. Als in seiner Heimatstadt eine Chemiefabrik errichtet werden soll und der Wiederstand der Bürger brutal unterdrückt wird, erklärt sich Taffin bereit, den Kampf gegen die skrupellosen Bauspekulanten und deren Schlägertruppen aufzunehmen. Zum ersten Mal in seinem Leben steht er einem mehr als gleichwertigen Gegner gegenüber...
