Getting even with the past

In the early 70's, Charles Bronson developed a respectable career in Europe, starring in international co-productions, generally italian and french ones. Among these films, it's worth seeing two of very different kinds, "Cold Sweat" and "Lola". The first one, called "De la part des copains" in France, tells about an ex criminal living in France who is forced by a gang of smugglers, led by James Mason (impressive as almways), to get even with his secret past. Intrigue, violence and treachery blows up all over the film, in a typical Bronson's vehicle. Besides, it is directed by Terence Young, the master of the first James Bond feature, "Dr. No".
