Synopsis:

‘Mario di Donati, a deserter from the Italian army, lives in Paris under a false name with Germaine, his French lover. When the latter learns about his hidden past, she feels hurt by Mario’s lack of trust in her and she distances herself from him. In despair, Mario surrenders to the law but, at the time of trial, he runs away to join the woman he loves…’
– Guy Bellinger

A film not particularly well-liked by critics, Recours en grâce has genuinely potent points of interest, especially the ease with which Mario’s wartime buddies switch into the “clandestine activities” mode, promptly transporting Paris back to the time of the Occupation, and the chilling ending that cleverly reimagines “the greatest horror of all” bit from Graham Greene’s Brighton Rock.

Reportedly unavailable on TV or video because Arthur Miller himself was unhappy with it, this 1951 film version of the classic play nevertheless features a bravura, barn-burning performance from Fredric March, who had been Miller’s original choice to play Willy Loman on the stage. (March turned down the part, and regretted it greatly, which led to his taking the movie part.)
