Doulos-The Finger Man. Lippy Jean-Paul Belmondo, who first made crime pay as a pint-size Bogart in Breathless, now proves himself a magnum Cagney who can rough up a moll in vintage Chicago style.

Since the men are not very active (though they can play pingpong and exercise in the gym), 2,400 calories are enough for a lightweight, while a 200-pounder may get 3,700. Each meal makes up a little more than a pint of syrupy liquid. It has to be cold, because some of the vitamins are destroyed by heat...
