The Alley Cat (French: Le Matou) is a 1985 Canadian/French French-language drama film based on the novel of the same name by Yves Beauchemin.
Florent (Dupire) and his wife Elise (Spaziani) always had one dream: to own a restaurant. When they meet a strange old man, Egon Ratablavasky (Carmet), their dream becomes a reality, but only to quickly turn into a nightmare when they sadly discover they have been tricked by him and lose everything.
Restaurant scenes were set in and shot at La Binerie Mont-Royal.
