I just bought this series on DVD. It was one of my best memories of the late sixties television series. Even after all these years, this film is still great. From a Paul Feval's novel who wrote "Le bossu" that is best known than "Les habits noirs". The basic story is identical, a man falsly accused comes back to get his revenge 16 years later. Not of the actors were very known but they were all very good. I am surprised that Jean Pierre Bernard who was handsome and sensitive haven't had a greater carrier on movies or TV.

I regret that TV currently never release all these nice series we had at the time: Arpad le Tzigane, Maurin des Maures, Les Mohicans de Paris...

French-language cinema, whether in France, Québec, or other Francophone regions, explores cultural identity, social change, and the tension between the individual and society. French cinema is not only celebrated for its intellectual experimentation and auteur traditions, but also its success in mainstream comedy, romance, and commercial entertainment. In Québec, films often focus on questions of language, belonging, and community within a distinct cultural landscape.
