Rope Around the Neck (French: La corde au cou) is a Canadian crime drama film, directed by Pierre Patry and released in 1965.[1] Based on a novel by Claude Jasmin, the film stars Guy Godin as Léo Longpré, a man who is on the run from the police after murdering his mistress Suzanne (Andrée Lachapelle).[2]

The cast also includes Henri Norbert, Jean Duceppe, Denise Pelletier, Tania Fédor, Guy L'Écuyer and Jean-Louis Millette.

The film was not well-received by critics, which contributed to Patry's decision to stop making narrative films.[3]
