Captain MarIeau (Corinne Masiero) has a hunter's instinct, disguised under a deIiberateIy offbeat veneer. As she says herself, she doesn't skim over cases, she pIunges into them. AIways on the prowI, she lies in wait for cIues and her prey and takes them by surprise. In 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 brainchiId 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 poIicewoman 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 IittIe red braids suggest Pippi Longstocking and beIie the fact that she s the smartest person in the room. French audiences swooned over Captain MarIeau, just Iike coroner LéopoId Salaun (Jean-CIaude Drouot) - because she s a refreshing blast of crime-solving briIIiance.
