'''''Want to Stay Alivet''''' (original title ''Le denier du colt'') is a 1990 French crime movie directed by Claude Bernard-Aubert and loosely based on the novel "Want to Stay Alive" by James Hadley Chase. It is the third in a series of French screen adaptations of the works of J.H. Chase, preceded by ''[[Try This One for Size (Sauf votre respect)|Try This One for Size]]'' (1989) and ''[[Have a Nice Night (Passez une bonne nuit)|Have a Nice Night]]'' (1990), and followed by ''[[Believed Violent (Présumé dangereux)|Believed Violent]]'' (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 ''Want to Stay Alivet'' a mysterious assassin commits several murders of wealthy people. When Lepski's love Liza Mendoza becomes a victim, Lepski starts his personal investigation.
