Have you seen Bertrand Tavernier's Coup de Torchon (Clean Slate)? It is based on Thompson's Pop. 1280, possibly my favorite of Thompson's. The story is transferred to French West Africa. I was skeptical when I heard about it but Tavernier did an excellent job adapting Pop. 1280. If you are a Thompson fan and/or a neo-noir fan I recommend it.
