Jig-Saw (1979)
Le cadavre de son fils Julien ayant été découvert par la police canadienne, Romain Dupré (un Français) doit se soumettre à la douloureuse formalité de la reconnaissance; mais le défunt lui est totalement inconnu. Ainsi, armé de sa seule perspicacité, Romain va-t-il partir à la recherche du disparu dont les relations avec certains milieux interlopes ne laissent pas d'aiguiser la curiosité de la police. Avec l'aide bienveillante d'une jeune femme rencontré par hasard, Karen, le père retrouvera finalement son enfant alors que, en possession d'une grosse somme d'argent (volée par un autre), celui-ci s'apprête à passer la frontière américaine. Romain tente de convaincre son fils, en vain, quand surgissent simultanément des hommes du milieu et la police. Une fusillade éclate au cours de laquelle Romain est blessé. Julien renonce alors à son projet et se rend, tandis que les autres poursuivants sont appréhendés.
