La Scoumoune (English language title The Pariah) is a 1972 French-Italian gangster film directed and written by José Giovanni, based on his own novel L'Excommunié.

François de Roubaix composed the soundtrack, which notably includes a barrel organ leitmotif.In 1934, mobster Roberto Borgo (Belmondo), also known as "La Scoumoune", comes to the port city of Marseille, Southern France, to help his friend Xavier Saratov (Constantin), who was framed by the local crime bosses. Roberto is caught up in clashes between different gangs and as a result serves a long sentence in prison for killing several enemy gang members. After a few years, he manages to escape and seeks revenge. | |

The Remake | |
| La Scoumoune / int_6b27162d | comment |
The Remake: The film is actually a remake of the 1961 Jean Becker film Un nommé La Rocca, which already adapted José Giovanni's L'Excommunié. Despite the fact Giovanni also wrote that 1961 film, he wasn't satisfied with it and decided to re-adapt it to the screen himself. | |

The Teaser | |
| La Scoumoune / int_6e8b95dc | comment |
The Teaser: The film starts with a scene in which Roberto waits for a mob killer who's disguised as a priest to come out of a church and kills him in a lightning fast Quick Draw. Then Migli shows up nearby and starts to play his barrel organ. Roberto gets closer to him, the camera focuses on Roberto's eye and the opening credits start. | |

The Gunslinger: Roberto is unmatched at Quick Draw, and he's quite the Cold Sniper with a revolver. | |

Organ Grinder: Migli aka "The Mexican", the mustachioed accomplice of Roberto who's sometimes seen playing the film's theme on his portable barrel organ. He was played by Mexican actor Enrique Lucero. | |

Red Baron | |
| La Scoumoune / int_ab2df806 | comment |
Red Baron: Roberto's nickname is "La Scoumoune", because he brings bad luck to his enemies since he's a master at Quick Draw ("scoumoune" was an old Southern French slang word for "bad luck"). | |
