Synopsis
The Horse (La Horse, 1970) — watch online on iFILM — a French crime drama directed by Pierre Granier-Deferre, starring Jean Gabin. Auguste Maroilleur runs four hundred hectares of farmland with an iron hand, and every member of his extended family answers to him. That has always been the arrangement.
Then he finds heroin hidden in his barn — stashed there by his own grandson. Auguste destroys the drugs without hesitation: that is not what his land is for. The traffickers arrive to collect. They are not prepared for what they find. Based on Michel Lambesc's novel, the film is a siege story at its core, and Gabin brings the kind of granite authority that makes you believe an old farmer could hold his ground against the mob.
