Summary:
"Set in France in 1942 at the beginning of the Nazi occupation, Mr. Klein tells of one man's search for another who has stolen his identity. Robert Klein (Alain Delon) is a well to do French Catholic art dealer; he is charming, cultivated and ruthless. One day he learns of another Mr. Klein, a jew who is using his identity to cover anti-Nazi resistance activities. As Klein becomes obsessed with the search for his imposter, he meets an elegant society lady (Jeanne Moreau) who is somehow involved with the Jewish Klein. Eventually, Klein's search becomes a trap into which he falls."--Container.
