Gorilla's Waltz (La valse du gorille) is a 1959 French spy thriller directed by Bernard Borderie, a sequel to The Mask of the Gorilla with Roger Hanin replacing Lino Ventura in the role of French secret agent Géo Paquet alias "The Gorilla". "The Gorilla" has to return from the retirement and join the spy game when French, American, British and Soviet secret services hunt for the invention of German Professor Keibel, while the West Germany plans to keep the invention for themselves.
The following weapons were used in the film Gorilla's Waltz (La valse du gorille):
During the operation in Dusseldorf, Hortense (Suzanne Dehelly) suggests Colonel Berthomieu (Charles Vanel) to take a Browning Hi-Power but Berthomieu refuses. Later Géo Paquet alias "The Gorilla" (Roger Hanin) takes this pistol.
Luger P08 pistols are widely used throughout the movie, notably seen in hands of French agents Berthier (Yves Barsacq) and Bergere (Pierre Collet), American agent Ted Parker alias "Ted the Hook" (Jess Hahn), Soviet agent Boris Almazian (Michel Thomass), and Otto Lohn's assistant Von Rosberg (Claude Vernier). Numerous Lohn's and Almazian's agents as well as German police officers also use Lugers.
A number of Otto Lohn's and Almazian's agents and guards in the secret laboratory are armed with MP40 submachine guns. When "The Gorilla" (Roger Hanin) comes to resque Berthomieu, he disarms a guard, takes his MP40 and then gives it to Berthomieu (Charles Vanel) who in turn passes the gun to Berthier (Yves Barsacq).
