The Duel (Duelul) is a 1981 Romanian crime movie directed by Sergiu Nicolaescu and starring himself as Police Commissioner Tudor Moldovan. The story takes place in September 1939 in Bucharest, Romania. Commissioner Moldovan investigates several bank robberies that were carried by a gang of Rica Pasarin (Ion Ritiu) by order of businessman and pro-Nazi politician Grigore Maimuca (Colea Rautu). In order to find the criminal, Moldovan befriends Pasarin's younger brother, a street boy known as "The Kid".

The main character of the movie also appears in a serie of crime movies filmed in 1970s (The Duel is a prequel to them). In several movies he is called Tudor Miclovan, and in others (including The Duel) - Tudor Moldovan.

The following weapons are seen in the movie The Duel (Duelul):

Walther P38

The main weapon of Rica Pasarin (Ion Ritiu) and other gangsters are Walther P38 pistols. The story takes place in 1939 so it's highly unbelievable that Romanian criminals would have access to the most modern pistol of Wehrmacht.
