Have a Nice Night (original title Passez une bonne nuit) is a 1990 French crime movie directed by Jeannot Szwarc and loosely based on the novel "Have a Nice Night" by James Hadley Chase. It is the second in a series of French screen adaptations of the works of J.H. Chase, preceded by Try This One for Size (1989), and followed by Want to Stay Alive and Believed Violent (both 1990). The series is united by the person of the insurance investigator Tom Lepski (Michael Brandon) (in the original novels Tom Lepski is a police detective in Paradise City, Florida). In Have a Nice Night Lepski provides the security of famous actress Barbara Jenkins and of her priceless emerald when Barbara stays in a hotel on French Riviera.
The following weapons were used in the film Have a Nice Night (Passez une bonne nuit):
Handguns
Röhm RG 79
Anaide (Sophie Renoir) uses a 5-shot snub nose nickel plated revolver with pearl grips. It appears to be a blank-firing Röhm RG 79 revolver, a late version with shrouded ejector rod and flat top of the frame.
Colt Python
Inspector Jacobi (Stéphane Bonnet) carries a revolver that appears to be a Colt Python (or maybe a blank-firing Bruni Magnum).
Arminius HW-1
In one scene a police officer holds a revolver that appears to be a blank-firing Arminius HW-1.
Manurhin MR-73
Police officers carry revolvers in holsters. Due to typical position of the logo on the grip, these revolvers can be identified as Manurhin MR-73s.
Beretta 92FS
Daniel (Martin Provost), one of Cleaners, carries a nickel plated Beretta 92FS pistol (not a Beretta 92FS Inox that didn't exist in 1989 when the movie was filmed).
Submachine Guns
MP40
MP40s are seen in hands of Cleaners and police.
MAT-49
MAT-49 SMGs are also seen in hands of Cleaners and police.
Rifles and Assault Rifles
Armi-Jager AP-15
A compact Armi-Jager AP-15 is seen in hands of several Cleaners, including Daniel (Martin Provost). These are also seen in La Femme Nikita, filmed in France in the same year.
MAS-49/56
During the hostage crisis one of the police snipers is armed with a rifle that appears to be a MAS-49/56.
Unidentified sniper rifles
During the hostage crisis several police snipers are seen with various rifles.
Other Weapons
Mk 2 Hand Grenade
Anaide (Sophie Renoir) uses a Mk 2 hand grenade during the kidnapping.
