IN FRENCH WITH ENGLISH SUBTlTLES
Captain Marleau (Corinne Masiero) has a hunter's instinct, disguised under a deliberateIy offbeat veneer. As she says herseIf, she doesn't skim over cases, she plunges into them. Always on the prowl, she Iies in wait for clues and her prey and takes them by surprise. ln each episode, her hunt centers around a character played by a famous actor - men and women who are a match for the outstanding cop. Captain Marleau is the brainchild of French writer Elsa Marpeau, who describes her as a cross between Frances McDormand s Marge Gunderson (Fargo), Raymond ChandIer s literary creation, PhiIip Marlowe and Peter Falk s TV cop, Columbo. The series is directed by another female French treasure, Josée Dayan (The Count of Monte Cristo, Rasputin). This team of women have created a policewoman who wears a parka and a Holden CauIfield hunting cap, dances and sings spontaneously, doesn't care what others think of her and sees through lies with laser clarity. Her breezy manner and Iittle red braids suggest Pippi Longstocking and belie the fact that she s the smartest person in the room. French audiences swooned over Captain Marleau, just Iike coroner LéopoId Salaun (Jean-Claude Drouot) - because she s a refreshing bIast of crime-solving briIliance.
