Les Tontons flingueurs (Crooks in Clover aka. Monsieur Gangster) is a 1963 French-Italian-German film, made in the French language, directed by Georges Lautner.

The film was not an enormous popular on first release. But its reputation grew with the passing years and it has now appeared at least 15 times on television, while the DVD version, released in 2002, sold 250,000 copies.

The most famous scene is set in a kitchen where the gangsters try to make nonchalant conversation while drinking a vile, and strong, liquor. The writer Michel Audiard considered it useless and it might never have existed, but the director included the scene it in homage to the famous film noir Key Largo.

Fernand Naudin is an ex-gangster, who now deals in agricultural machinery. His small quiet life is rocked when his childhood friend, now a notorious gangster, summons him to his death bed.
