Rebellion (2011)

Rebellion (French title: L'ordre et la morale) is a 2011 French drama film directed by and starring Mathieu Kassovitz. Based on the events surrounding the Ouvéa cave hostage taking that occurred in April and May of 1988, Kassovitz plays a GIGN officer who attempts to seek a peaceful solution to the crisis while contending with pressure from the military and the government for a forceful resolution. All of the pictures come from the trailer.

The following weapons are featured in the 2011 film Rebellion:


Handguns

Manurhin MR-73

The Manurhin MR-73 revolver is the standard sidearm of Captain Philippe Legorjus (Mathieu Kassovitz) and other Groupe d'Intervention de la Gendarmerie Nationale (GIGN) operatives. Legorjus uses it at several points in the film, most prominently during the finale.
