  • "Monsieur Hire n'as pas d'amis. De la chambre où il habite, il regarde Alice, en face. Un soir, il remarque quelque chose d'anormal. Un crime a été commis. Parce que personne ne l'aime, Monsieur Hire est le suspect idéal."
  • "Monsieur Hire, scheu, schmächtig, kahlköpfig, steht abends lange an seinem verdunkelten Fenster, hört immer dieselbe Brahms-Platte und wartete darauf, dass die junge Frau, die im Haus gegenüber wohnt, sich den Pullover auszieht. Die junge Alice entdeckt, dass sie und ihr krimineller Freund vom Nachbarn beobachtet worden sind. Sie horcht den Nachbarn, Monsieur Hire, aus und erfährt, dass er nicht alles, was er weiss, an die Polizei weitergeben will. (Simenon-Verfilmung)."
  • "Touching, lyrical, erotic, suspenseful and enigmatic, Patrice Leconte's (Girl on the Bridge) 1989 psychological drama Monsieur Hire is both "a twisted love story and a tragic thriller" (London Sunday Times). In a provincial French apartment block, Monsieur Hire (Michel Blanc) endures a solitary life of dulling work as a tailor and vitriolic scorn from his neighbors. Hire's only solace is an occasional night out bowling and the voyeuristic admiration of his neighbor, the "ravishingly erotic" (Entertainment Weekly) Alice (Sandrine Bonnaire ? Vagabond, ? Nos Amours), a beautiful, free-spirited woman conducting a heated love affair through un-drawn curtains across the way. But when police discover the nude body of another young woman in a nearby vacant lot, Hire becomes the prime suspect in a murder investigation that brings him face to face with the object of his desire even as it threatens to ensnare them both in a web of deceit, accusation, lust, and guilt.Adapted from the book by celebrated Belgian crime novelist Georges Simenon, Monsieur Hire is a film of gorgeously muted widescreen color and"funereal beauty" (The Washington Post) that coolly unpacks sexual obsession and romantic love with an intelligence and understated intensity "so delicate that you almost hold your breath for the last half-hour" (Roger Ebert)."
  • "A murder mystery involving a peeping tom."
  • ""Qui est Monsieur Hire? Il n'a pas d'âge, il n'a pas d'ami, il est seul. Il attend le grand événement"--Container."
  • "Un homme, que tout le monde déteste, observe, au travers de sa fenêtre, une femme chez elle. Cependant, un crime a été commis récemment et l'homme en est accusé. Mais la femme semble en savoir quelque chose. Très accessible. Tragique et très beau. Selon le livre de Georges Simenon."
  • "When a beautiful woman discovers she's being spied on by a cold, repressed neighbor, she becomes the aggressor in an erotically charged relationship that leads to a deadly game of cat-and-mouse."
  • "Un hombre introvertido y enamorado obsesivamente de su joven vecina a quien espía a todas horas, hasta que se ve envuelto en un asesinato."
  • "A maladjusted middle-aged man becomes the prime suspect in the murder of a young woman."
  • ""In a provincial French apartment block, Monsieur Hire endures a solitary life of dulling work as a tailor and vitriolic scorn from his neighbors. Hire's only solace is an occasional night out bowling and the voyeuristic admiration of his neighbor. ... When police discover the nude body of another young woman in a nearby vacant lot, Hire becomes the prime suspect in a murder investigation"--Container."
  • "Il signor Hire, strano tipo di misantropo solitario e ruvido, passa il suo tempo libero a spiare dalla finestra una ragazza che abita nella casa di fronte finché scorge qualcosa che non avrebbe dovuto vedere. E cade in una trappola mortale."
  • "Triste e solitario, il signor Hire passa il suo tempo osservando Alice dalla finestra: spera di averla conquistata quando le propone di fuggire insieme in cambio del silenzio su un delitto compiuto dal suo fidanzato, ma la ragazza non pagherà il suo debito. (Mereghetti)."
  • ""M. Hire vit depuis des années dans le même appartement, ni pauvre ni riche. Il attend. Alice, qui loge dans un studio juste en face, se rend brusquement compte qu'il l'observe depuis des mois. Il sait tout d'elle et en tombe amoureux, alors qu'Alice est éprise d'Emile et prête a tout pour le protéger."
  • "Monsieur Hire, een eenzelvige, teruggetrokken man, wordt verdacht van moord op een jonge vrouw."
  • "A young woman is brutally murdered and the prime suspect is a repressed man who's obsessed with his beautiful neighbor and spends his nights watching her through a bedroom window."
  • "A young girl is found murdered and the police are led to the reclusive Monsieur Hire. Living a mundane existence his greatest pleasure is to watch Alice who lives in the opposite apartment."
  • "Lonely and shy bachelor Monsieur Hire, suspected in the murder of a girl, secretly watches his young, attractive neighbor Alice (Sandrine Bonnaire) through the window, which eventually leads to a deadly game of cat-and-mouse."
  • "A solitary tailor comes under suspicion when a girl is murdered. His hobby is spying on his neighbour, Alice ..."
  • "Drame adapté du roman LES FIANÇAILLES DE M. HIRE de Georges Simenon. Monsieur Hire n'a ni âge, ni amis jusqu'au jour où il rencontre Alice qu'il épiera ensuite tous les jours et pour laquelle il nourrit une passion secrète. Il en vient à connaître toutes ses habitudes, ses plaisirs et ses secrets. La police le soupçonnant d'être l'auteur d'un meurtre sordide, se met à le surveiller mais rien ne change aux habitudes de Monsieur Hire. Quand Alice surprend son manège et entreprend de faire sa connaissance, Hire se révèle connaître l'identité du tueur. Avec Michel Blanc, Sandrine Bonnaire, Luc Thuillier, André Wilms."
