Looking for good french spy movies

Salut à tous,

I try to scratch my brain for good french spy movies. But none are coming up. Could you help me, please.

I wrote a list of spy movies that I like ( I enjoy the genre) see : http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0080297/board/nest/34158235 and had also a lot of input for spy movies that I didn't know. And I was a bit shy for not knowing more spy movies in french language. Being french Canadian.

So I come to your help, Agents secrets would be a example (hopefully not the best one) of that type of movies.

There is also:
La femme Nikita which is borderline spy stuff, more like a covert agent.
Z from Costa Gavras doesn't involves spy either but more political secret meetings and being follow by government secret police
(Love that spoiler function)

Il y avait bien ce site... mais je ne connaissais aucun des films français ou italiens présent dans la liste :http://www.fan-de-cinema.com/liste-genre/espionnage-1.html It looks more like european crime movies than spy movies or like B movies with spies.

Looking forward for your input, merci.

Salut

Check out Female Agents (2008). Not set in modern times but in WW2, about a group of French service women, recruited as British SOE's. Based on true events.

Les Patriotes. One, if not THE, best french spy movie out there in my opinion.

Cheers,
