La Métamorphose des cloportes (1965)
Edmond, Arthur et Rouquemoute sont sur un « coup ». Pour monter leur casse, ils ont besoin d’argent. Edmond convainc son ami Alphonse d’avancer les fonds. Mais l’affaire échoue et Alphonse est le seul à se retrouver en prison. Pendant cinq ans, il rumine sa vengeance. Lorsqu’il recouvre la liberté, les « cloportes » se sont métamorphosés en honorables bourgeois. Alphonse va sortir les gros calibres : rien de tel pour rafraîchir la mémoire des vieux amis…
