Le Cercle rouge (1970)
À peine libéré de prison, Corey, un truand monte un fabuleux hold-up avec l’aide de Vogel, un gangster évadé et de Jansen, un ancien policier alcoolique. Le coup réussit. Le receleur, effrayé par l’importance du butin, leur recommande de s’adresser à un spécialiste. Ce dernier n’est autre que le commissaire François Mattei chargé de l’enquête. Çakyamuni le Solitaire, dit Sidarta Gautama le Sage, dit le Bouddah se saisit d'un morceau de craie rouge, traça un cercle et dit : « Quand des hommes, même s'ils l'ignorent, doivent se retrouver un jour, tout peut arriver à chacun d'entre eux et ils peuvent suivre des chemins divergents. Au jour dit, inéluctablement, ils seront réunis dans le cercle rouge. »
