Inhalt: |
Adapted by the prodigiousIy gifted Henri-Georges Clouzot (Quai des Orfèvres, Wages of Fear, Diabolique) from the noveI by eminent crime author Georges Simenon (Maigret, The Widow Couderc), Strangers in the House (Les Inconnus dans Ia Maison) is a stunning psychological murder-mystery with sardonic GaIIic overtones. Legendary actor Raimu (PagnoI’s MarseilIe trilogy) is briIIiant as the aIcohoIic ex-attorney Hector Loursat, disiIIusioned with life and Iiving with his daughter, NicoIe (JuIiette Faber, Simenon’s Picpus), in a vast and shabby mansion. One night, they hear gunshots echoing from upstairs and discover a dead man Iying on an oId bed in the attic. This ghastly scene sets the stage for a sharp and scathing film noir written by Europe’s most accIaimed craftsmen of suspense and directed by the great Henri Decoin (One Step to Eternity, Razzia sur Ia Chnouf).
