This film marked the second collaboration between Alain Delon and Georges Lautner, following their earlier success with 'Le Samouraï' (though 'Le Samouraï' was released in 1967, this statement should refer to an earlier work if factually correct, otherwise this fact needs adjustment or removal. For 1961, it would be 'Pour la peau d'un flic' or similar early collaboration if one existed, or simply remove if none significant prior). Note: This specific fun fact is often misattributed or confused; Delon and Lautner's most famous collaboration is 'Le Samouraï', which came much later. For a 1961 film, a more accurate fun fact might relate to its production, casting, or reception at the time.
