The post Guy Lefranc – La moucharde AKA Why Women Sin (1958) first appeared on Cinema of the World.

Synopsis:
Early one morning, an armoured van loaded with diamonds sets out from the Place Vendôme in the heart of Paris to Bourget airport, accompanied by a police escort. Before it can reach its destination, the convoy is suddenly attacked by a gang of armed crooks, who show no mercy as they set about stealing the valuable cargo. The gang’s leader, Quinquin, has no intention of sharing his ill-gotten gains with his accomplices. As soon as he has taken receipt of the diamonds he begins eliminating all of his criminal associates, beginning with Gouvion, the police inspector who was charged with
delivering the jewels.

Police superintendent Joss is just a few months from a well-deserved retirement when he is tasked with investigating the jewel heist. Gouvion was a close personal friend of his, so his death comes as a shock and causes Joss to redouble his efforts to find the criminals. It isn’t long before Gouvion’s
part in the diamond theft is uncovered – it seems he was seduced by Nathalie, the sister of one of the crooks. Learning that her brother is one of the men who was killed by Quinquin in his purge, Nathalie agrees to help Joss bring the gang leader to justice, but she meets a nasty end when the gangster boss sees through her treachery.

Making full use of his informers and underworld contacts, the wily superintendent sets about laying a trap for his enemy by encouraging a rival gang to raid a postal train. Naturally these extreme measures bring him into conflict with his police superiors, but Joss is adamant that they are necessary to apprehend one of the most dangerous criminals in France. Quinquin swallows the bait and falls straight into Joss’s carefully laid trap. Once the train robbery has been carried off successfully, the two gangs confront each other in a disused factory and set about wiping each other out. Joss shows up at the end of this fierce showdown to deliver not justice, but a well-timed revenge…

The post Julien Duvivier – Pot-Bouille AKA Lovers of Paris (1957) first appeared on Cinema of the World.

An aristocrat, short of the readies, has turned his desirable mansion into a textile workshop, where he works with his wife, his son and his mother-in-law. He’s grumpy, stingy and unkind. In the village, the wealthy solicitor wants his ugliest daughter to marry his half-witted young son, so she’ll become a countess. But saint Francis Assisi appears and the count changes overnight; he does not want his family to kill the spiders (your sister, the spider) and he begins to ignore the social conventions: his son will marry “La Langouste” (the lobster), the local hooker who keeps a strong clientele among the billeted troops. Now, the aristocrat, imitating our Lord’s apostles, divests himself of all possessions of the material world and intends to hit the road in a horse-drawn caravan.
