Wiki.
Grijpstra & De Gier is a 1979 Dutch crime film directed by Wim Verstappen. It is based on the eponymous novel series by Jan Willem van de Wetering (although his name is usually styled Janwillem van de Wetering), specifically Het lijk in de Haarlemmer Houttuinen (translation: The Body in the Haarlemmer Houttuinen, a former neighbourhood in Amsterdam).
The film has also been released as Fatal Error and Outsider in Amsterdam. Although the film was not received to critical acclaim, it managed reasonable box-office success.
