An excellent detective series for any nation, and yet I've seen a lot of them, ancient or modern.
Quickly, what differentiates this Maigret 1991 from other detective series is the atmosphere, the weightlessness and above all the reality that sticks to the skin of this universe.
Maigret is a gruff bear, certainly, but he has the gift of empathy: he loves people (even delinquents) and that can be seen on the screen.
Everyone has a chance with him: he takes his time to live with them, to live in the dirt, to live in the filth of this world in which he appears like a breath of air.
I like Bruno Cremer in this series because he is both human and the God of this world.
I'm more than tired of the series that we see too often in videos on demand, in which the houses don't have an ounce of dust, in which everything is smooth, all the actors are beautiful and all the investigations are solved with DNA.
No, that's not the truth.
The truth, the reality, is rather in the darkness and filth depicted by this series.
For me, it is masterful.
