"Clouzot’s gripping film about a group of men driving a truck full of nitroglycerine to end a mining disaster is, although it could not be more French, one of the great buddy pictures of all time, with a degree of white-knuckle suspense that has never been bettered, before or sense. It is, or could be, an elegy to the French film industry, which in its heyday could produce films of every kind that captured an international audience, and is now pretty much reduced to love stories or French comedies that, with rare exceptions, seldom seem funny to foreigners."

"The French really know how to do sex and bodies and affairs and palettes. I want every outfit in these films. This is a warm bath, a fragrant candle, a full glass of wine, and something deeply sensual at the base of your gut that is hard to name."
