Pierre's peace and tranquility are rocked, however, when new blood in the French government launches a new investigation (after members of the "old guard" in both the government and the Catholic Church helped hide him for over 50 years), and he becomes the target of police, assassins and a famous Nazi hunter (Swinton). </div> <div> <B>Ratings: Critics C     Users D</B></div> </tD> </tR> </TABLE></div> <bR> </td> </tr></table></body>
